Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of gall bladder removal surgery followed by persistent vomiting and pain under the left breast and sometimes in stomach. Vomiting relieves a bit.
This indicates the following:
Some of the patients of gall bladder have inherent stomach ulcer, hence ideally you should have been subjected to the upper GI endoscopy before surgery.
No problem, get it done now, get the proper treatment instituted.
Start on PPI, antacid liquid at 3 hourly interval and Domperidone too.
Soft bland diet.
Bed rest.
Review regularly, proper treatment.
