How did ultrasound go please.
I have read tons of post related to the pain just under the right rib cage and protruding to the back. So far It seems as if not too many folks come back with whatever their solution was. I have been experiencing the same pain for over 8 Months now and its too the point where its intolerable. I'm a 48yr old male. At first the pain was more of a discomfort and annoyance than anything , but now about 8 Months into its its almost unbearable at times.I have recently changed Doctors due to the first Doc seemingly at a loss. My new Doctor has already sent to for several test. First they did the ultra-sould , which came back negative , secondly it was a HIDA scan which also came back negative. I then went back for a CT Scan which showed my liver and gallbladder to be enlarged so I was sent back for a MRI. Now the Doc is telling me I have a mass or blockage in the bile ducts and I'm being sent to a GI Specialist. The first Doctor because he was clueless seemed to want to think some how I was making this all up and actually suggested I start taking anti-depressants. I'm so glad I fired him!!!!! This pain at times is so intense that I can hardly function. So now Im waiting on my apt for the GI so they can go in with a camera and take a look and see whats going on as far as to what the mass is and I Imagine how to go about treating it. I was overwhelmed when I fist read these blogs so many folks seem to be suffering from the same type of pain and in the same areas as I was, but it didn't seem as if many folks were actually getting any relief. So now I'm concerned it may be bile duct cancer only because of the amount of pain In in. I just wanted to say to anyone out there still looking for answers and relief please don't give up even when all the test they trow at you. I wish I would have demanded a MRI from the start, I may have saved me months of torture and just the feeling that everyone seemed to think I was making it up!! Hang in there!
Have you guys considered that this might just be a constipation problem? We can build up feces over time that stick to the walls of our colon and, in time, it can become quite a collection.
After 15yrs of asking different doctors I finally got a response. Well kinda he said my liver is coming up over my rubs and there is nothing they can do.
Does yours come and go? I have this as well but it doesn't hurt. It just feels like a HUGE knot. I have the worst heartburn/indigestion a LOT! The know itself..or whatever it is, goes away,which I find strange because is feels so big, but it comes back. Sure do wish someone knew what is causing it. I need to lose at least 30 lbs and I don't eat or sleep regular hours. Maybe a new lifestyle would help but I am a bit comforted to see that SO MANY are having this!
How Did you get cute of it
As am feeling the same as you used too

I haven't gotten rid of it. I feel it now. I did not feel it all day today and now it's back. STRANGE...but mine doesn't hurt. I just feel like it's a big "something" that needs to move when it's there. If I stand up, it goes away.
WOW...you would think there would be something they could tell us that would make is stop. I would tend to think that we have what is called "fatty liver"??? I had a friend who had that and had to change her diet to NO FATS at all...she never said she had this feeling though. I guess if you've had it for 15 yrs., it can't be anything dangerous. Hope not!
I have thought of that but it does it at times when I am regular as well. I feel it now. It seems it's too far over to the right to be anything to do with the bowel though...but I don't know. It's really aggravating. I HAVE noticed that I tend to lean to the right when on my pc and that it does set in when I've been on here a lot.
I hope they come back and tell us. I hit the "follow" up at the top so I get notifications if anyone comments on this. PLEASE someone post your findings. Thanks. OH..did you see the post above this where they said a person who know medical said that it could be posture...or our liver protrudes over our ribs? They said that there is nothing that can be done for it but it sounds like fatty liver to me. I'm cutting out fats and see if that helps.
Hi, I had my ultrasound, the doctor said it is muscle spasms, which I don't believe. I think it is the liver protruding under my right lower rig cage and getting trapped where I have to lay down to pop it back in
Just another guy with the same issues as everyone else here.. It's been on and off for a bout 6 months now. Whenever I'm at the computer (sorta slouched over) I feel a bubble like sensation directly under my bottom right rib.. Or when bending over to pick up something I feel it. Even laying in bed on my stomach I swear I feel a slight lump but can never feel anything with my hands. It's not exactly "painful" but extremely annoying. It also brings on anxiety at times which sucks so bad. 26 years old here.
I have it too. I have to literally stretch out until I feel whatever it is pop out. It stops me in my tracks, it is very painful!
write your experience madam
Yeah, mine hurts like $*&"! and it sticks out sideways like a short pipe and I have to lie down and stretch to pop it back in!
