question: I have had a cough for over a week, now on my left side at my ribs I have some discomfort but when I woke up this morning I had sharp pains there so I went to the family doctor and got a z pac and some robitussin. When I came home I fell asleep on couch for no more than 15 minutes and I had more pain in my ribs that made me feel like I was gonna pass out so I went to the E.R. and got an xray that showed my ribs were not cracked and I had no pneumonia which is good I guess, but im scared to go back to sleep because I know the pain will be back. What is wrong with me?
