Today, I went to the doctor's because I could feel something solid in my breasts, and I wanted to get it checked, just to be safe. Turns out it was my ribs. Oops. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at work, I had an accident and cracked a rib. I got taken to hospital where I got checked over. The doctor said it was a good job I hadn't got a chest infection nor a cold. Funny you should say that doc, I have both. She replied, "Well, that's bad…" FML
Today, I told the doctor that one of my ribs sticks out farther than the other. When I lifted my shirt to show him, he immediately laughed and said, "Whoa, that's not subtle is it!" As if I wasn't already insecure about it. FML
Today, I went to the doctor thinking I had breast cancer. Turns out, I have a third boob. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for a suspicious lump under my armpit, so he suggested a breast examination. While pressing all over them he said, "We're gonna have to send you for an X-ray because you have the most lumpy breasts I've ever felt in my life." FML
Today, I had the pleasure of finding out how it feels to poop with 3 broken ribs. FML
Today, I went to my gyn to see what a painful lump is under my armpit. Turns out it's breast tissue, and yes, it will fill up with milk when I'm pregnant. I essentially have three boobs. FML
Today, I cracked a rib coughing. FML
Today, a girl asked me to check out her left breast, which she said she'd found a strange lump on. I'm an orthodontist. FML
Today, I found out that I have testicular cancer for the second time in two years, and they may end up removing my last testicle. Knowing full well I was also born with an extra rib, the doctor at the consultation joked, "Hey, you'll be three quarters of the way to being a woman." FML
Today, I coughed so hard that I fractured two ribs. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

On the upside, it's not cancer! Whatever the opposite of FYL is, that.

My grandmother told her "friends" she noticed a "lump" her friends said it was nothing, and she was paranoid. Turns out it was breast cancer! It's a good thing she checked anyway. Always better safe than sorry! congratulations op!!

Maybe you are too skinny
sturschaedel 27
Yeah, if you can *recently* feel your ribs through your breasts, you overdid it with the diet.
Emirac 10
Huh? I'm in good shape, even have just a few extra pounds and have a size 28G breasts and if I prod hard enough i can feel my ribs. I don't think that has anything to do with it.
9a_1z 12
How are you doing that? If I prod hard enough it hurts and I stop, and I'm a 32 band with probably an equal volume of boob to you.
chosha_fml 27
There no way you can feel a rib in a way that would seem like a lump through a G-cup breast. With your fingers under the breast maybe, but not through it.
Krypt1c 11
Boob comparison.. but if we do it we're "perverts" >.>
leogachi 15
@49 Stop whining. It's not like they're comparing how firm they are and the size "comparison" isn't even a comparison. You're implying a double standard that doesn't exist.

I was thinking this may be a case for the Itty bitty titty commission...
SLdeej 11
It's healthy to be able to feel your ribs, if you can you got a BIG problem.
SLdeej 11
They might just have small breasts, ever think about that?
norpedo 16
I can feel my ribs and I'm not too skinny. Granted, I have basically no boobs though

#45, I don't think you can tell me there's "no way" when I've stated I've done it. I do breast exams regularly, and they're to be done lying flat on your back. In that position, the tissue redistributes somewhat and near the center of my chest I can feel my ribs through them. So yes, there is a way.

#77, I'm a 36DD and even doing a breast examination lying down I cannot feel my ribs through my breast tissue. I'm thinking you're either lying, or you've got a problem. Having large breast and still being able to feel your ribs does not sound healthy to me.
shavednipples 22
#79, I'm a 34DD and I can easily feel my ribs in my breasts towards the center of my chest. your breasts are probably set closer together, which is fine, but I'm assuming #77 and I have them set further apart, which may be why we can feel our ribs.
Emirac 10
#77 I have absolutely no reason to lie about something so unimportant. Also, I have a chronic illness that keeps me in the doctor's office quite often, so I can assure you that my breasts are one area of my body that is very healthy. No need to be rude.
BigC_from_Bama 16
the guy version of this won't be as entertaining. "If I prod my balls hard enough, I can feel millions of my unborn children and my pelvic bone".
9a_1z 12
Hey I'd find that entertaining. I can feel ribs at the centre of my chest (well actually my sternum with ribs either side because I'm not a mutant) but to me that's between boob area, not actual boob area. I'm confused because I can't imagine mistaking that for a breast lump.

Shut up
bapbap_fml 15
I can feel my ribs through my breasts if I try. And I'm certainly not on a diet, I eat more than my husband does.
thestrangedude 10
Bet you felt a right tit! (Or was it the left?)

I don't understand how that is a mistake that can be made.
O0hdear 21
it's not a hard mistake to make for small chested women
paperbag77 9
oh dear she went there lol soz couldn't help it
littlekellilee 45
I'm small chested and have some dislocated ribs so the rib edge feels like a lump.
Mf2307 15
I said the same thing but I guess it can happen
uncle_ssaamm 12
legit having the same problem have to go to chiropractor to get it adjusted

It could have been a fetus in fetu. You should have named it Gary.

The doctor might have enjoyed it!

female patients typically get female doctors, so no
wildstyle2007 8
because lesbians aren't a thing...
lil_ham1644 29
I've had more male gynos than female. they typically do everything, but have a female nurse in the room.
Darkness_Hate 29
Better a rib than a kyst or the sign of breast cancer. You're lucky.
leogachi 15
@10 Do you mean cyst?
MOOSE786 8
You pressed so hard that you could feel your ribs?
brezzyanna 17
Or just small boobs.
TXlove 6
Even with small boobs, mine aren't big and I can press hard enough to feel ribs but they don't feel like a lump..

somebody needs a sammich
Tripartita 45
Fact: 100% of people who have died had ribs. It's good you got that checked out instead of waiting for them to spread and form the dreaded "cage," which is basically a boney claw that clutches the life out of you.
Railroader 16
I need proof that what you say is true.
MedChew 19
It IS true, look up devil's grip. In all seriousness, you know he's joking right?
Tripartita 45
Look, #13, you can't prove that it ISN'T true. If that's not reason enough to believe me, I don't know what is. :P
paperbag77 9
you can't prove that god is not a spaghetti monster either. If the argument is based on inability to disprove a statement then we could go round and round all year lol
Tripartita 45
That's the joke, #19.
Zebediabolical 45
It has to be true. Everything on the internet is true. I read it on the internet. :D
Lalala579121 28
We also can't prove that Tripartita isn't god. I mean, I haven't seen them both in the same room, have you?

@19 woosh!!!
