Yesterday, I had this really scary moment where my food got stuck, and I started coughing. It got so bad that I ended up throwing up, and during that, it felt like my whole body was shaking. After that, I started feeling this pain in my shoulder, neck, and arms, and there's also this burning and sharp pain in my chest. And now, every time I sneeze or cough, there's this sharp pain on the left side of my chest. I'm kind of worriedcan you tell me what's going on and if there's any medicine or something I should be taking?

My CT scan from 6 months ago showed a few tiny calculi and I'm diabetic. For the past 23 months, I've been dealing with bloating, acidity, and constipation. Is surgery something I should consider for this?

Mild GI symptoms and tiny renal calculi may not need surgery; a gastroenterologist can guide further with imaging and labs.
