A member asked:

I have pain in the middle of my chest after i eat certain foods. i have heard sometimes it can be your gallbladder- what would this feel like?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely...: Gallbladder would be a remote consideration of chest pain. Assuming cardiac causes are ruled out, gerd or esophageal spasm would be more likely. Good luck!

Dr Pappas and another doctor agreed
