I've been experiencing a really concerning issue whenever I eat. I get this severe pain in my chest, close to where my heart is, right after meals. It seems to get worse when I have spicy foods. Oddly enough, if I lie down immediately, the pain goes away. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've been dealing with chronic gastritis since October 2013, but back then my liver tests were normal and my liver fibroscan didn't show any issues. Recently, my lab results showed total bilirubin at 1.46 with direct at 0.36 and indirect at 1.10, SGOT at 22.90, and SGPT at 28.30. Ive been taking Rekool10 for a few months as well as avas 10 since February 2015 for cholesterol and olsartan AM 205. Should I be worried about my liver or these test results? How is this connected to my ongoing gastritis problem? Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything here.

My ultrasound report says the gall bladder isn't visible but there's a dilated common bile duct measuring 20mm at the porta with a clump of calculi around 39x19mm in the middle part. Should I be worried about this? What does this mean for my condition? I had gallbladder surgery before and now seeing these findings could this be related to my past surgery or is it something new developing? What are the next steps I should take?
Dilated CBD and calculi post-cholecystectomy may need ERCP—consult gastroenterologist soon.
