Having Unexplained Weight Gain And Shoulder Blade Burning Sensation
I have been having unexplained weight gain in the last few months have went from an average 184 to 199 is it my hormones or something else, and have had left shoulder blade burning sensation off and on for a few months as well. I am really worried something is terribly wrong. I had a partial hysterectomy back in 2003, could it be hormonal?

Hi there
Have you experienced any other gastro-intestinal symptoms? Any change in stool color/consistency etc. Has there been any change in your diet or lifestyle of recent? It is possible that it could be hormonal but it is also likely that it could be Cholecystitis / Gall stones. I would recommend blood investigations , a full liver function , hormonal assay as well as a full blood count. An abdominal ultrasound would also be of assistance.
