I have had the gall bladder thing and it hurts like heck. I did wonder if I was having a heart attack.

Both me and hubby have had gallbladder problems (both had surgery). Mine followed a lot of weight loss too.

My husband had extreme nausea after eating. I, however, had severe back pain (between my shoulder blades), and chest pain. They looked for everything - from heart to reflux to pancreatitis before finding gallbladder.

I’m praying whatever happened, he recovers quickly and without complication

A gall bladder attack should not induce “in serious condition,” but a perforated stomach ulcer or perferated gall bladder or even appendicitis with pain somehow deferred to the chest area — or a heart attack could produce him being in “serious condition.”

Ditto...it can mimic it big time...the pain between shoulders into the arm...those stones can mimic everything under the sun. Prayers up for Rush tonight and every night. He is our armor and sword.
