Suggest Treatment For Upper Right Quadrant Pain

Hi, I am 42 yr old female with history of R renal stenosis(12yrs ago)(renal balloon angioplasty, stent placed yr and half later. I am on lasix 40mg 3x daily, plus bp med and gabipentin for repeat shingle x8 and small nerve neuropothy. Recent presentation of gall stones and R ovarian cyst. Recent test showing I m beginning chf with readings of 190 and 102. Right now I m having upper right quadrant pain that includes right flank into back. Dull and nagging. I also just broke out in shingles again, when I move Im winded and get a clammy sweat. No fever but tired and feel like crap!

Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

It is possible that your immunity might be low and that is the reason why you are frequently getting shingles. Stress and anxiety are known causes of shingles. Gabapentin given pain relief and improves the quality of life.

The gall stones and ovary cyst need to be assessed clinically and if they require any surgical treatment. Your CHF is starting and if any surgery is to be done then with precautions it can be done better now than later should you havepreogressive CHF. The pain in right upper quadrant appears to be due to gall stones and requires surgical treatment if they are multiple with toe possibility of biliary obstruction. Please do not worry.
