Upper left quadrant pain

I am a little concerned. Three days ago I started to have a sharp almost burning pain in my upper left abdomen.  The pain goes from a sharp feeling to a dull ache, but it always there.  I am a healthy 28 year old female.  I had my gallbladder out in January of this year.  I called my doctor and they can not see me until Tomorrow.  Just wondering if anyone has any ideas of what this could be.

Thanks
Becky

About a week ago I started having pain in my left upper back.  I have Acid Reflux Disease and take Pepcid AC constantly.  I went to the Doctor and he is sure I am having problems with my heart and scheduled a Stress  Test.   this is not the first time and not my first Stress Test.  Do I need another Doctor? What result on lab would show up if I am having pancreatic problems?

Went to doctor and they think it is a ulcer. I guess time will tell, but no relief of pain yet.

By now you've seen your doc.  What was the verdict?  I'm wondering if your pancreas is involved.
