im confused if I have
Gerd , Gallstones or pulled back muscle

last night I woke up with sensation to the R inner side of shoulder blade (not really a ow sort of feeling more bad discomfort but also had feeling in chest/high stomach area and kept burping and felt I had to rub shoulder and was propped upright to try stop the chest/high stomach burp thing
sorry not more informative, I’m crap at catching symptom and naming them.
must say I had 2 small glasses of white wine and bag of crisps (before 10pm)

This morning still bit burping (but I can just do that randomly anytime)
but discomfort in R Shoulderblade is still there !

so if you have gallstones what are your symptoms? I know everyone will be different in a few ways ?

My pain is right side just below my ribs. I asked the surgeon if the pain I’ve experienced in my right side could have been gallbladder pain and he said quite probably.
Only way to know for sure is a scan. It’s only an ultrasound so you should get it done quite quickly through GP. I wouldn’t just assume pain you’ve had is gallstones.

To start with I had a bit of pain under my right rib. Sort of felt like my bra was too tight. About 1 hour after eating a meal with fat in I got the awful pain. At times it felt my stomach was going to explode it was so painful. Also lost my appetite slowly until I couldn’t eat anything. Prob a good way to tell is if you eat something with no fat in and you’re ok, but then eat something with fat in and you get the pain it could be gallstones. You’ll need to get an ultrasound to check that. (If you get really bad pain and your skin/eyes go yellow/your poop is grey then you need to go to a&e as you may have a gallstone stuck)
