Miguel, a 33-year-old male, presents to his GP for a recommended follow-up review and further investigation after an ED presentation with right upper quadrant pain, suspected secondary to biliary colic.

The ED discharge states that, at presentation, Miguel had severe right upper quadrant pain radiating to the back, with no associated fever or vomiting.
