Brief Answer:
you can continue with the medicines.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can continue with the medicines prescribed by your doctor till your investigations are done. In addition to the previous investigations, I would advise for Thyroid profile also.
If the pain is severe, you can take Ibuprofen instead of Zerodol (to be taken twice daily after meals along with an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg).
I hope this answers your query.
