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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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.

Great now you have me prodding at my own breasts to see if I can feel my ribs. I can't feel anything. D: Once you're over 40 it's a good idea to have routine mammograms anyway, you could see this as practice!

At first I thought that a piece of your rib had broken off and lodged itself in your breast. Now that would be gory. I think I need a coffee to stay awake.

why your boob's so far down that when you feel them and touch a rib you think it's in your breast? FYL for real!

I don't think this is an FML at all! It should be more like: Today I proved to myself that I am a rationally thinking person, that cares about their wellbeing. Good on you OP! :)

Typical. Don't worry, a liberals complaints are rarely relevant.

Usually I call people stupid for this but with cancer you're better safe than sorry
