A member asked:

What would cause severe chest pain - not shoulder pain- immediately following percutaneous liver bx?

Chest pain: Chest pain, especially chest pain described as 'severe' should be evaluated in person by a professional in an emergent setting no matter what happened beforehand,...please get this worked up at an ER as soon as possible
