I have had right rib cage pain for the last 8 years and I have had two liver byopsies in the last two years and not one DR. can tell me why my ribs are hurting I was hoping that someone could tell me what I need to do or recommend a specialist that I could go to in order to get some answers because I am getting sick and tired of being in pain all of the time. thank you LM Couch
Have you figured anything out yet? I have the same problem and am looking for answers. By reading there a lot of people with this same thing and it is discouraging me of running anymore tests as I have no insurance. I have been tested for hepatitis, gallbladder and they are negative. My liver was enlarged about a year ago, but on a recent ultrasound was normnal. The pain is with me every day and I get so fatigued It takes all I have to get through my full time job. I have been running a fever this time for a straight month. They put me on antibiotics for the 10th??? time this year. I am only 38 and feel like I'm 80. Help!
