Ok I have this pain in my back sometimes travels up through my shoulders.This is new.Started shortly after surgery I had dec 7th.During surgery my heart tried stopping I have a block in my right side and an extra beat well its been there for years had a heart attack in 97 but that was drug induced.They said during surgery that they detected a block in my left side also.Dont remember much what they said because was just waking up.I didn't think it was that serious since they sent me home that day.
But now I have this pain and its like right under my shoulder blade and sometimes feels like its stabbing right through the front.I also get this heavy feeling on my chest oh and acid reflux all the time... I have had some numbness in my fingers too.I see my doc the 29th but he's a ob/gyn for my post op.Should I tell him about it and ask to see another doc.Or do you think its just in my head.I am only 34 and in good health well semi lol.I am really nervous but scared to create unnecessary medical bills.

What kind of surgery did you have? You should tell your OB about it at your post op, he can then refer you if necessary.

Sounds like your galbladder. Go to your doc for an eval.

Yes it does sound like possible gallstones, but could be several different things. It is best to have her doctor check it out when she goes back in a few days.

I Would Recommend You See A Cardiologist And Get A Full Work Up Of Your Heart. Women Have Different Symptoms When It Comes To Heart Problems.

It sounds like possible gallstones. Tell your doctor, then maybe he/she can refer you. Just do what J_9 says.
