[|Human|] my mother is having these attacks where she is having numbness starting right under her ribs and it goes up to around her throat. It makes it hard for her to breathe. She does have gallstones. She said the attacks only last probably one minute. But the doctors have not determined what is causing these attacks . She has been checked by a heart doctor and a neurolgist. No problems seen. Could it be caused from the gallstones?
[|AI|]  Hello Attacks are most likely not related to gall bladder calculus. Your mothers symptoms may be due to some other reasons like vitamin deficiency, nerve involvement, psychogenic etc. She should go for definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus. Definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus is surgical removal of gall bladder(cholecystectomy). Gall bladder calculus is prone to infection and obstruction, so it is advised to get rid of calculus early. Take Care Chat Doctor.
