A member asked:
I have been having pain under left arm and across chest. it is not heart related. could it be gall bladder?
7 doctors weighed in across 4 answers
Likely not: Gallbladder pain is under right ribs which radiates to right flank and right shoulder. It could be muscular, rib pain, pleurisy etc. I wonder if you had a recent treadmill. Ask your dr for accurate DX and explanation of your symptoms.

Unlikely: You need full evaluation could certainly be angina. You should not ignore it.

Maybe: Typically, gallbladder related pain is associated with pain in the upper abdomen and along the right side or back. However, there are occasionally patients who have described something similar to you whose symptoms resolved with removal of the gallbladder.
