A member asked:

Left rib and shoulder blade pain. gallbladder gone 1 yr. ago causing terrible gerd and ab. pain. ct, blood, endo clear 8 mo. ago. pain reflux related?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely : Based on the location, I would say it's unlikely to be gerd related. Sounds like it may be more of a musculoskeletal type of pain. Maybe try some yoga? Sounds crazy, but it could work. Hope this helps!
