Any GP's on here?

I experienced the pain about a week ago which will go away by drinking fluids.

The only way I can describe is a sharp pain (like a stabbing pain) the upper spine between the shoulder blades. It radiates straight through the body to the sternum and then to the right, just underthe right breast. I feel dizzy and lightheaded too. I have just started getting over a viral infection and was wondering if that may have something to do with it.

Hopefully one of you good ladies/gents could help me out on this as I'm not sure it's severe enough to call out the OOH GP or go to casualty.

I would be very grateful for any advice.

TIA

I might be a bit late, and Im no medical expert but first though is gallbladder trouble. Hope you are ok now

I would guess Gallbladder too, it sounds exactly the same as i experience with my dear Gallstones, drinking water helps me too (as does munching a rice cake and moving around)

If it happens again particularly after eating fatty foods, you'll know its not viral related.
