History Of Gallbladder Disease, Kidney Stones, Lower Back Pain. Taken Percocet And Tylenol. Worth Worrying?
I have a history of gallbladder disease (which I can usually control with diet) and kidney stones. I have had moderate to severe lower back pain for a couple of weeks, mostly on the left side. Not sure if this is related to that at all....
Last night I had a gallbladder attack because of what I ate over the weekend. I took a Percocet and slept. When I woke the gallbladder pain was gone but I had vaginal bleeding which has continued all day. (I had a normal period over 4th of July and never spot between cycles) and the lower back pain is intense today. Ive taken Tylenol and rested all day but wondering if I should have gone to the ER or if I should call off work tomorrow to be seen.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Gallbladder disease , not mentioned the name of disease, here ,I would like to say one thing that don't take easy ( gallbladder disease) , as it may worsen in future. As far as kidney stone , pain may ( left side) be due to this stone, id size of stone ( calculus ) less than 5-6 mm , it can be treated by drugs and other medicines , so mention the size and, if possible upload the ultrasound report over this site.
Urine examination with blood ( creatinine & urea) reports are very important.
Consult a surgeon and get his opinion.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
