title: At risk of becoming one of the worried well.
abstract: When I developed pains around my rib area recently following a bout of flu, I was convinced I had cracked a rib as this had happened before. I went to a GP who agreed I had either done it again or strained some muscles. So instead of investigating my symptoms I was sent off with painkillers.
