Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had an X-ray at a chiropractor clinic that showed a spot near the gallbladder. I am finding it hard to interpret the X-ray results. I took Pepto capsules one hour before the X-ray. I also take tablet Livalo, tablet Olemsartan, and tablet Prilosec daily. Can you help me understand the X-ray results?

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have seen the X-rays you sent (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). The gall bladder fossa is not visible. Please send me the whole chest X-ray again. In the images you have sent, everything looks normal. The right Acromioclavicular joint, shoulder joint, scapula, ribs, and right lung looks normal.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thanks for your response.

I can see a spot on the X-ray that I just uploaded. But if it looks normal, I am happy.

Thanks, doctor.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Yes, it does not seem normal. It could be a gall bladder stone. I suggest you get an ultrasound done. The calculus looks quite big.

Take care.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
