sharp pains under my ribs with every breath

by KelseyRose, Sep 18, 2008 02:08AM
so I woke up this morning with what felt like a cramp after running a long distance....and every time I would take a breath i'd feel this sharp stabbing pain below my right rib. it has been going on all day the sharp pain just keeps getting more and more severe and had made it's way to the left side, I thought in my head... "maybe I should go to the ER"..."maybe it's more seriouse than a cramp" I have no idea what it is, but now the pain is in that whole area...I took a 600 mill IBProfen earlier, the pain sortof went away, but is now starting to come back. is it my diaphragm??? or my gallbladder, do I have lung cancer...I have been smoking for about 6 years...off and on...I started young, I'm in the process of quiting...havent smoked once today because of my pain. could anyone give me an answer...I've read almost all of the enties under this subject...some are the same seom are different. please help me. I don't want to die. . I've had almost 2 panic attacks today...I have an extreeme level of anxiety. please someone give me answers. please. I called me mom today, because I was in the middle of a panic attack, she can always talk me through one, this time I told her I think I'm dying, and that if I don't live to see her one last time, that I love her, and I can't wait to see her in heaven. I even called me brothers, and explained what was going on...they tell me i'm fine almost every time I call them with a problem...this time I feel it's more seriouse. I don't know what to do, I'm affriad to find out what I may have is uncurable please, if anyone can help me please do so.
