thought my daughter had a floating rib, however, that turned out not to be the issue. She is still having so much pain she has been out of school for 2 months. She is getting help through the school to keep up with her work, she is in high track classes and does not wish to fall behind.
through all the test, X-Rays, CT and MRI's - we are still looking for the cause. any suggestions?
