I had a good imaging test today. I was supposed to get the results back in 72 hours, but I received them after I had walked only a block from the hospital where I did it.
It didn't have the expected finding, but instead it found two others. One may be related to the gastroparesis stomach surgery I did in April. The other is a hyperactive gallbladder.
For both of these, I'm to have a surgery consult. Luckily I already have a relationship with a GI surgeon for my gastric stimulator, so we simply moved my appt up a month.
Apparently gallbladder removal is typical in this scenario, and possibly revision stomach valve surgery.
I'm glad we found some reason for the chest pains I've been having after eating for the last month or so!

@AncTreat@sunny.garden It's good to find the reason, especially when you have a fix for it! I do hate surgery, though.
