Please : Please take a pregnancy test, and then be seen by a professional to evaluate your symptoms. Your symptoms are concerning. The cause of your rib pain is not clear from your question, but pregnancy should be ruled out. Please be seen immediately as your headaches and dizziness are a concern.
