helpria- I only read your posting today, but I am around the same age as you and have the same problems. I think its bacterial as well. GI docs don't study that, they want to throw pills your way which don't work. Please let me know if you found a Dr who helped you or are you still struggling with the pain?

Trust me...it's your gallbladder....speaking from experience....ask for a hida scan....that will give you the answers you need....the ultra sounds never work....and the hida scan gets down and dirty with it...it will save you lots of time and money to eliminate all the other steps..HIDA SCAN...ask for it....your gallbladder can 'explode' and poison your body.

It may or may not be gallbladder,I don't have My gall bladder but have the same pain. Doctor needs to check for IBS. People don't understand how bad this can be. The pain can send you to the hospital. With Me,fried foods,sugar,carbonated drinks and stress set it off.

I had this kind of pain for a long time in the upper left abdomen. I also gained weight although I did not eat much. Had bloating and other symptoms. Finally found out I was gluten intolerant. I quit eating all products with gluten, including vinegar, soy sauce, breads, oats, and as long as I do not eat the wrong thing, have plenty of energy no pain and am fine!

I went to the doctor today for the same exact pains.. I have gone through many different tests and different specialists. I am 45 and have been living with this pain for the past 2 years with no answers. I have been checked over and over for my gallbladder, IBS, everything under the sun with no results until today. After 2 years IBS finally came out from my 4th specialist alone with stressing out sitting at a computer for 8 to 10 hours a day (i work in an office then come home and sit at the pc too) also to change eating habits LAY OFF SODAS hope this helps some of ya

I have the same symptoms that have been mentioned above. I am currently detoxing my liver/gallbladder. My weight has started to go down my bowels move daily 1-2 times, and I have increased my intake of water, probiotics, and vitamins. Many of the pains are decreasing!! Consider cleansing your system- I currenty go to Dr. Chris Natural Pharmacy.

If I eat fried foods, iceburg lettuce, spicy foods, gravy, I will swell up and look like I am 6 to 8 months preg. I had my gall bladder removed and the doctor ordered me to take nexium for the rest of my life. It helps alot, but I can not afford them, over 100$ for 30 days. I take over counter gasX or something to release gas if I do have to eat one of the foods above, it keeps me from swelling as bad and hurts for about 1-2 hours and I eat tums and it help keeps the gas away. You know lettuce has small worms on them and lettuce needs to be cleaned good and dried, be careful eating out, its easy but 1 tiny worm can make you sick, it gets in the stomach and can cause some of these problems.

I just got on to read this because i was having the same pain and have been trying to ignore it. I am wondering if anyone drinks regularly as well? I thought that it might have to do with drinking? But mine is very strange because it first started in my left side aid freaked out in college and went to the docter where they told me that nothing was wrong and i insisted that it was. So they did an MRI and found a small tumor on my pineal glade in my brain. I dont know if any of this has to do with the pain under my breast but another person said that they had tumors as well. So if it is the gallblader then what do they do for that? If a doctor is not doing something about it immediatly does that mean that it is just not a big deal? I would really like someone to let me know if they can. By the way I am only 22.

A lot, not all of these sound like either problems with the colon, gas, or gallbladder/pancreas. Some of these cases could be from the good you eat to the drinks you drink. Caffine is a trouble maker for a lot of people. Also stress can play a role in stomach problems, such as creating ulcers. I had my gallbladder taken out three and half years ago and I'm still having pain in the same area that's actually emanating into my upper back. The smaller intestine is located on the upper right side just a little under the rib cage. A lot of what's being mentioned sounds like really bad gas pains. Sometimes a gas bubble can form and create a lot of pressure and A LOT of pain to go with it. Acid reducers and gas-x can help a lot with that. A specialist can do proper testings that are more indepth and can pick up on things some hospitals or general doctors can't.

Listen I was sick from August of 08 until Nov 08 I had diarrhea and nausea heartburn pain in my stomach and under my right breast I used to lay on the floor and try to get rid of the pain and all it was was gas. The doctors told me for 4 months that they didn't know what was wrong I had chills but no fever and then all of a sudden I was in so much pain in my stomach and started bleeding when I went to the bathroom sounds nasty but blood was in my poop. I finally went back to the ER and they did a ct on my abdomen and found that I had some kind of bacterial infection in my intestines and was in the hospital for 4 days I had a colonoscopy and was treated with steroids and all kinds of other meds but look you know your body and you know when something is wrong just like I did and I never gave up until someone gave me a answer these doctors dont know everything so you keep going till you find one that will listen to you some of your symptoms sound like mine but I would keep going until they listen. Do stool samples blood test tell them to check you for giardia which is a infection that they can find in the stools.Don't give up trust me I am still goin through some of the problems when they told me that i would be ok so now I am going to find a new Gi doctor and you can go and see one to and see what they say it the gastrointestinal Doctors .

hi, I am having the ssame problems but no constipation, eat lots of friuts and veggies and go maybe 2 or 3 times a day -started as a nagging kinda pulling feeling under right rib, and has progressed now the pain is worst directly under right breast and still under right rib too, pain in right side of throat as well,nearly impossible to sleep as there is no posistion which is comfortable with this pain, lack of sleep is making me a bit nuts too-other stupid and wierd symptoms have popped up in the last 6 mos which are
extra greasy hair
breathlessness and wheezing feeling like it comes from the right lung
heart palpitations
muscle ticks in legs and arms
right arm went numb one night
right hand started shaking about 5 times, last about 1 minute, looks wierd
being woken up by either heart racing or quick loss of oxygen
rash on forearms that comes and goes
sweating more
and since ive had this problem other problems hav creeped in which I NEVER had in my 29 years of life, such as congestion, bad allergies and yeast infections, wtf?
pain increases dramatically with exercise so Ive put on weight
ohhhhh and I almost forgot-I cant burp! most of the time its very hard to brp and that may sound stupid but its so frustratin the burp comes all the way up to the top then stops-and it just repeats that over and over again

I have some of the same problems I can help you with the constipation. The first thing in the morning drink 20oz of cold water from the refridgerator. Do this before you eat anything, this will help your bowels move. Through the day try to drink at least 64oz of water and it is best to not eat after 6:00pm or 7:00pm. Go to Rite-aid store or WalMarts and buy a box of Metamucil Fiber Wefers (comes in Cinnamon and Apple). These are good with coffee, you can have 3 packs a day.
