About three months ago I started having severe bouts of acid reflux. I was put on protonix 40 mg 2x a day and zantac 2x a day. It took about 2 months to start doing better and I also have an endoscopy scheduled for the 25th of this month. A few days ago, after eating I had the most agonizing pain ever in my stomach, mainly on the right side and after it became to much to take, my husband rushed me to the ER. After giving me morphine and doing many tests, one of them an ultrasound, found out I have gallstones. So now I am wondering, was the gallstones giving me my symptoms of what I thought was acid reflux, all this time?
I believe it was the gallstones for sure. However go to google.com search engine and type in gallstone symptoms just to be sure! God bless and I pray everything turns out well for you!
Thanks bjcarte! :-D
