I'm dealing with heartburn, chest pain, nausea, and shortness of breath, and I've been like this for the last six months. Ive had a 2D echo, ECG, vitamin D check, endoscopy, and blood tests, but everything seems to be normal. What could be causing these symptoms if all my tests are showing up fine? I'm really concerned and would love to understand what's going on.

I'm really worried because I got these reports saying my gallbladder is distended and something about wall thickening and pericholecystic fluid. What does that mean? And I'm having back pain, but I'm not sure if it's related to that. I've got two kidney stones and I'm already on meds for those, but I don't think this pain is due to them. Can you explain why I'm feeling this pain and suggest what I should do or take for it?
The report suggests that your gallbladder is slightly enlarged, but there is no evidence of significant inflammation or fluid collection around it. The pain in your back may be related to your gallbladder, as it can cause discomfort that radiates to the back, though its important to rule out other causes. Since you also have kidney stones, it's a good idea to consult with your doctor to clarify whether the pain is from the gallbladder or another issue, and they can guide you on appropriate pain management.

I'm experiencing chest pain or some discomfort every time I eat sugar or sweets. Could this be related to a gastric issue? Which type of doctor should I see about this?
Chest discomfort after consuming sweets could be due to acid reflux or gastritis, as sugary foods can sometimes irritate the stomach lining or trigger reflux. Please consult a **gastroenterologist** for an evaluation to rule out other causes and confirm the diagnosis.
