Fellow Poppers, Countrymen (and Women) Lend Me Your Ear. Posted: 07-30-06 19:43pm
Hello s.P.O.T.W.
Sternum poppers of the world.
30 yrs old, I have been popping my
breastbone for around 6 years. It comes
and goes in bouts, I recently went about a
year where it didnt pop. Thats where the
problem lies for me. The pain and
discomfort come from the inablility to pop
the damn thing. Thats where I am now, in
a popping rut. I tilt my head back,
squeeze my shoulders back and hold my
breath...Pop! Please!. But nothing.
After a few days of this I start to get
severe heartburn? Anyone else get that.
Burning in the esophogas and an acidy
feeling in the throat. Trying to force
out a burp, but it just feels like hot
acid. Anyway, I dont know if that is
related to my chest problem, but I have
had some bad pain for about 4 days now
with no signs of letting up. I told my
doctors about the popping problem 3 or 4
times in the past and you get accused of
being a hypochondriac or they look at you
like youre some kind of nut, so I gave up.
I also have some gastro intestinal
issues, (diverticulitis) that flares up
quite a bit. I am only 30 and feel like
an old man.
Well I would love to hear from anyone who
closely fits my perdicament.
Live long and prosper poppers!
Bye
bill
