See a GI doctor: If the bile ducts remain blocked for a prolonged period of time, severe damage to the liver or pancreas or infection can occur. Because gallstone symptoms may be similar to those of a heart attack, appendicitis, ulcers, an accurate diagnosis is important. See a gastroenterologist ASAP.
