[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Update: I went to my pcp and they were surprisingly helpful. They: 1) Did their own EKG to get their own baseline, 2) Ordered bloodwork (the resulting flagged labs were then suggestive of possible galbladder issues), and 3) put me on some acid refulx meds to see if that helped while we investigated. Once we got the labs back they referred me for an abdominal ultrasound, which I had last week. Gallstones confirmed. Next step is a referral to gastroenterology and probably surgery. [/quote] Surgeon will give you your options, but I didn’t hesitate to ask for surgery. Gallstone pain is something else. I felt so much better after removal. Good luck![/quote]
