The software glitched. I cancelled the result, but perhaps not quickly enough. Does anyone have any information on costochondritis ? I know that it is supposed to be an inflammation of joints in the chest. What causes it ? Is there a cure or an effective treatment ? Aspirin doesn't help much. Indocin helps a little, but is not desirable as a long term solution. Please reply by mail to ihnp4!pyuxhh!kfd Thank you. Kim Donnelly BellCore SPL 1B-270, 50 Cragwood Road, S. Plainfield, NJ 07080
