Eddie has been having chest pain.

It does not seem to be reflux or GERD, none of those meds are helping.....it has been back and forth to the GP's to rule out the cardi prob and try a few different meds to take care of any reflux. so after waiting almost 2 months he finally had an appt with a gastro last week.

We had an appt scheduled for an ultrasound tomorrow to check for gallstones, but the pain has been really bad this week. he called his gastro who called the imaging office and had him moved up to today.

so......keep it all in your thoughts & prayers.

nah, they won't give the results to Dr Herman until tomorrow.

BUT, I will try to be in the room. The rad techs won't tell you what they see, but I know enough to know. The stones are more dense and will show as white spots on screen.

Anyway, after this Dr Herman also wants to do a scope.
