What Causes Chest Pain And Difficulty Breathing With Normal Cardiac Tests?
Hi, I just got out of the hospital yesterday after a scare with what they thought might be my heart. I do have CAD but test showed that is was in check. The reason I went to the ER was due to attacks I am having that similate gallbladder attacks. I had that taken out in 2003 so why am I having these attacks? The hospitalist said I might have sludge in my bile duct. They sent me home after everything was ok with my cardiac tests. This pain I have is horrible and is so bad it takes my breath away. That is why they did those tests. What is my best approach with this problem since it seems to be related to my removal of the gallbladder? Thank you. Paula
