And probably some additional testing. I think you mentioned they already did a CT scan.

Have you been around Carole Baskin in the last 48 hours? There’s a good chance she slipped you some anti-freeze.

Also could be gallstones/cholecystitis

Have you tried a cloth mask?

Medute

You sure about that Dr?

It can happen, but it isn't common

Medute

So it could be GERD...got it

byuguns55

Unlikely but possible. Still get it checked out...which sounds like he is

Sounds like a gallbladder attack.

What did you eat yesterday? My guess is gallbladder

Iman23

Getting an ultrasound now. DR thinks it’s gallbladder

Did you drink Mtn Dew yesterday? That’s what sets my inflames my gallbladder.

Typically fatty foods stimulate the gallbladder

Only change I made was give up Mtn Dew. My son worked in the electronics lab at

Well, ok. Guess I will forsake science now because of your anecdote.

SJS

I am just supplying my first hand account. Do with it what you will. I haven’t

Omeprazole is the only PPI that works for me.

Which would make sense, as the gallbladder has nothing to do with GERD

SJS

5/26/20 8:01am

Lol. Like you know anything about the gallbladder.

Backcountry

5/26/20 9:07am

It's like the only thing I truly know anything about.

SJS

5/26/20 9:10am

Ugh, those gallbladder attacks are the worst. Had mine finally -

Gallbladder CT scan for stones was negative
