7Chest Pain
Many people often mistake a gallbladder attack for a heart attack mainly because both conditions typically involve pain in the chest area. This is mainly triggered because the bile duct is blocked or inflamed due to the disease. As a result, it causes acid to get trapped in your stomach, which can flow back up to the esophagus and cause excruciating in the chest. Unlike a heart attack, chest pain caused by a gallbladder attack often occurs after a meal. In these cases, do not lie down because it might worsen your symptoms. [7]
