Ribs still improving but bearable at this point.  Did manage a little grip work - had to stay light but got some reps in anyway.  Backed my medication off to 1/2 pill 3x a day - we'll see how it does on the pain and hopefully helps with the side effects.  I fell in the bathtub last night (a slip really)- my balance is - well - gone.  I've got to get the side effects down some.
