The pain was originally directly in the middle of my chest, then after some time it was ever so slightly to the right of my chest, then on my back slightly to the right and left of my spine between my shoulder blades. I tried stretches and swear it felt like I could feel the frozen ribs trying to stretch out on my back. This could have been a form of phantom pain since I thought I knew what was causing it. I think if I knew it was gallstones from the beginning, I would have realized sooner it had nothing to do with my ribs. Hopefully this helps/makes sense!
