Mgt: Gallbladder disease may present this way, I would suggest checking labs, avoiding fatty foods if this causes pain.

Referred neck pain: If the lateral x-ray of the scapula is ok, unusual tension and poor posture aggravate a mild neck arthritis. Try exercise at EHR around 125 if ur doc OKs it. The dopamine and endorphins will help relieve the tension. Rarely, if it is related to respiration it could be a sticky lung lining., More rarely a rib facet may need manipulation.
