Interesting an ECG abnormality (S-T interval elongation) is associated with gall bladder disease. No explanation.

Seriously, have the gall bladder ultrasound. |
There might be something to this, I am getting an ultrasound this morning and my pulimonologist did mention a very small abnormality in my t wave when I went to the ER back in October. However, she was very dismissive of it and made a very passing comment about that, and other EKG's did not show this.
Thanks everyone for the info, and I get a scope down my throat on Tuesday, I will update you all when I know more.
And I will work on my bleat and four legged run.
