No, the ER won't help you at all. Call your doctor first thing in the morning and get in there to see him/her ASAP. If your gallstones are truly interfering with your life, surgery should be around the next corner. Good luck.

How long have you had these gallstones? Is your physician aware of theproblem you are having? Are you able to call your physician's office? If it is pain that you can't sleep through the night, then yes go to the ER. However, if you can't reach your physicin tonight and it can wait until morning then do that. The ER are for emergencies. You may go to the ER but gallstones aren't considered emergencies unless you are like at then end stage. You may find yourself getting medications for the pain until they are able to see you. You will spend $250 for nothing and pay only $25 or $30 to see your physician in the morning.

I WOULD SAY YES IF THE PAIN IS TO THE POINT THAT IT IS A 10 ON A SCALE OF 1-10 . IF IT CAN WAIT TILL THE MORNING THEN YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR OWN DOCTOR OR MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE A GENERAL SURGERY DOCTOR IF YOU ARE ALREADY HAVE A DX OF GALLSTONES

I'm close to 38, so I'm certainly a aspect of Generation X, ... but I in no way particularly attached with the complete misplaced-in-this-global, slacker personality that we had been all meant to narrate to. Probably due to the fact my mother and father and siblings had been all older -- while I used to be born, my sibs had been sixteen, 17, and 18 -- all of them grew up within the '50s and '60s. Anyway, I wager if I needed to prefer one, it might be "Rusty Cage" via Soundgarden. Just due to the fact I can relate to feeling like an interloper, and in need of to become independent from from the matters that maintain me down and/or make me very similar to different folks. My household used to be additionally beautiful screwed up, so I too can relate this music to in need of to become independent from from their controlling manipulation, abuse, and all that amazing stuff ...
