Focal Nodular Hyperplasia / Gallstones

I was diagnosed with FNH in August '08 by incidental finding when being ultrasounded for gallstones. One stone was found, but so was a 2.5cm FNH in my liver. I assumed it was related to my oral contraceptives. I stopped taking them immediately. I have been fine since.
About a week and a half ago, i started having the same "dull" pain by my right rib cage...occasional "colicky" episodes that were mild...and just general discomfort. Nothing serious to keep me home or warrant an ER visit. I feel like my right side (back included) are "full" and dull/burning. I do have epigastric "urpy" and reflux feelings.
Could this be related to my FNH? Could it be my stone rolling around in there? Im not too sure what to do, but Im tired of it just being there. Any thoughts?

sounds exactly like gallbladder problems..unless you change your eating habits you will lose your gallbladder.
