I saw the dr. last week for a nasty cold and an ache in my chest. We figured it was bronchitis or pleurisy, and she gave me an antibiotic and an inhaler. I was running a little slowly last week, but Saturday I felt pretty well and didn't notice the ache so much. I thought I was getting better until yesterday. I got up feeling really awful and it didn't get better over a few hours so I called the dr. She sent me to the ER, where they (shockingly, at least to me) worked me up for a heart attack, pulmonary embolism and pneumonia. They concluded it was none of those things and sent me home, telling me to follow up with my dr. in the morning.

I had no ache this morning, but it was back after I ate breakfast, had a cup of coffee and did normal mom things for 30 minutes. I have an appt with my internist this afternoon at 3:30. I hope we can find out what's going on.

Thanks for your prayers.

Lucky me I get to have an ultrasound of my gall bladder on Wednesday, and I have some groovy new pills to take in case it's reflux. Progress! I'll keep you posted after ultrasound. Thanks for the prayers -- I'm unusually calm!

Praying Patty, and after reading your post earlier my first thought was to tell you to have them check your gall bladder. I know that pain . Hope you have an answer soon.

Updating again: had the ultrasound this morning. Negative for gallstones, but apparently we aren't done with testing yet. The dr. wants me to have a HIDA scan to check liver/gall bladder functions. Still waiting for the hospital to call me to schedule.

I wonder if all this will resolve why my liver function tests are off. Hmmmm.

I'm pretty calm still. Thank you!

Patty,

Having just gone through many of the same tests myself, I definitely feel for you. Prayers are being offered.
