Ok, you will think I'm crazy, but go to Sav On and buy some Pepcid Ac or any other kind of acid reducer and take it twice a day for 4 days... see if you don't feel better. It will not cause you any harm if that that is NOT the problem.

I had that pain for 6 months in the exact same place, andthe Doc that I work for finally, after xrays, chiropractic, you name it, diagnosed me with acid reflux. It is worth a try.

I don't know, but if you find out let me know...because I too have had pain in the same exact place. It seems to happen to me when I'm laying on my side and it'll wake me out of a dead sleep.

I have that problem too. It's due to some inflamation of some ligaments or tendons. I had an x-ray done and learned that one of my disc is slightly worn down. I Don't remember how I could have hurt myself. But physical therapy helps. I have to stay away from certain exercises such as pushups and full situps and lifting weights under 30-40 pounds; especially my left side. I've had this problem for 4 years now. But you will be surprise what stress and tension can do to a body. You may have bad circulation in that area for whatever reason and need assistance with PT. Hope this helps.
