Question: Need some answers ASAP! .?
I was diagonised with 'tietze syndrome' 2 weeks ago-my 2nd upper left rib. I have been taken ibuprofen and co-codomol for it. But its been like 3 days,where i feel the pain is getting worse.My sleeping pattern is totally messed up these past 3 days,i used to sleep at 10pm and wake for 9am. But now since the pain has worsened i sleep at 3am and wake for 1pm. Is this meant to happen.? I just feel really tired during the day and sleep.And i have been today experiencing blurred vision and feeling sick and feeling cold. The pain has radiated to the right side of my chest,left arm,shoulder and my left upper leg. Is this mean to happen.? I have been resting and not been doing any physical activity for it to wosen. The pain seems to be spreading to my right side.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I think you should go back to your GP, according to the links below the pain should be localised and confined to your ribs. Maybe you have a virus as well, I hope you soon feel better.Health Question & Answer
i think you have prob been doing the right thing when it comes to painkillers but you should try to speak to your doc again And explain that its getting worse see what he says and maybe try different kinds of painkillers as well like actual pain relief tablets that say so on front of box and if you are not already getting the strongest type and ask a local chemist they may be able to advise more but hope your pain goes away asapHealth Question & Answer

you taking 2 diffrent pain killers at the same time.?.?
ibuprofen and co-codomol.?
the co-codomol is what is causing yout blurred vision. (i took it only once, couldnt see properly in the morning, very blurred vision for a while.
you should seriously go back to your doctor, dont think it's good taking 2 diffrent pain killers, what are the dosages you are taking.?
Edit_
Since the pain killers are only there to cover over the pain, think you should read up on the condition, and find ways to help heal it quicker. dont mix the pain killers, just stick with the ibuprofen. the other has a lot of side effects. like the blurred vision.
the ibuprofen has anti inflamatory proporties, which will help to heal. keep taking them.
