I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A PAIN AND DISCOMFORT FOR TWO YEARS NOW THAT IS GOING TO DRIVE ME INSANE. THERE ISN'T A MOMENT IN THE DAY THAT I DO NOT HAVE SOME SORT OF PAIN IN MY SIDE OR BACK.

THIS ALL BEGAN TWO YEARS AGO WHEN I FELT WHAT SEEMED LIKE I HELD MY BREATH, JAMMED A GOLF BALL UNDER MY RIGHT RIB CAGE AND EXHALED. I WENT TO THE DOCTOR ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, HE SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE GALL BLADDER PROBLEMS AND REFERRED ME TO HAVE AN ULTRA SOUND AS WELL AS A HYDA-SCAN AND BLOOD TESTS. ALL OF WHICH TURNED UP NEGATIVE.

I HAVE HAD TWO MRI'S, BOTH A YEAR APART FROM ONE ANOTHER, NOTHING FOUND. AGAIN A YEAR LATER, MORE BLOOD TESTS, NOTHING.

I HAVE BEEN TO THE GYNOCOLOGIST, NOTHING. I HAVE BEEN TO A GASTROENTEROLOGIST, THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T HELP ME.

MY PAIN HAS NOW MORPHED INTO A NAGGING PRESSURE IN BOTH THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE BETWEEN THE RIBS AND HIP BONES. RADIATING FROM THE CENTER OF MY STOMACH, AROUND TO MY BACK. THE FEELING AND INTENSITY VARIES. SOMETIMES IT'S MORE OF A TINGLY NUMBNESS, SOMETIMES IT'S PRESSURE (LIKE A TOURNIQUET IS AROUND ME, BUT, ONLY ON THE RIGHT FRONT AND BACK SIDE). SOMETIMES IT'S A LITTLE OF EVERYTHING. I HAVE RESORTED TO SLEEPING ON A HEATING PAD JUST ABOUT NIGHTLY (MY INSIDES ARE PROBABLY NOW WELL DONE).

SEEING A NEW DOCTOR, THINKING MY SYMPTOMS MAY BE NERVE RELATED--POSSIBLY SHINGLES (NO OTHER SYMPTOMS)??? I WAS PRESCRIBED AND HAVE TRIED TAKING NEURONTIN. THIS NOT ONLY DIDN'T HELP THE PAIN AND DISCOMFORT, THE DRUG MADE ME FEEL "HIGH".

I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR SOMEONE TO SAY, "YEAH" I KNOW WHAT THAT IS, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO"

HELP!!

Hi Hurtin....
i have been experiencing a simialr problem for about 2 months now. Don't want heat on me at night or day, but i do feel the nagging sensation of something that want to "crack" like an out of place rib or bone or disc.
My suggestion to you is to have a very good massage.
It may sound selfish to some, but you could be in a spasm of some sort- you could be tweeked out of place.
For the last two months I have started a new training program on my out of shape body.
The worst part about it isnt that I am a little overweight....it's that a human body looses it's ability to be flexible and to recover and perform at its optimum.
I beleive i am bent out of shape. I cannot massage it myself and every once in a while i get a satisfying "CRACK"..like something gave way and there is temproary relief.
Being that i have experienced having a swollen infected gall bladder, it doesn't seem to me that that particular Dr. led you in the right direction.
The ONLY other idea I have is this......could there be an obstruction in the intestine and that is why the pain seems to be more intense upon eating??
Well, let me know what happens!

you have explained here exactly what is happing to me. Have you found anything out since? I want help and my doctor has ran all these tests also and negative is the outcome. I have not done a CT scan yet, because I have no insurance, but it seems it would be a waste of money anyway by reading some of the stuff other people have wrote. I often wonder if terroists aren't slipping us bad mickey's. LOL What I am wondering is do you have extreme fatigue with your symptoms? How about a low grade fever? I also have both of these and have been on antibiotics for almost a year now. Only recently the pain has stayed with me for a month straight now. I struggle to make it through work. Sometimes I find my self typing on my knees because the sitting position seems to make it worse. Don't know if it is related, but I have also gained about 15 pounds and get bruises easily. My fiance has noticed my memory is getting bad. Headaches have also found me. What to do?????????????

Have the same problem, mostly when i eat a big meal. Feel like something is lodge in my ribs and it runs through my side and back. Also get a bloated feeling and numbess around the area. Thought it was my gall bladder. Had an ultrasound done and told me it was fatty liver and be on a low fat diet. So keep that in mind. I havent started the diet yet but ill let you know if it still progress. But keep me updated if you hear different.

I to have been going through the same thing for about two years. I also have multiple sclerosis and that is always a good answer it seems but no relief. One doctor told me it may be pleurisy but who knows? But it is so uncomfortable and painful and I am so sick of it. I cant even sleep on that side at night because there is so much pressure. I have had x-rays, MRI's, you name it, and still nothing. Frustrating to say the least. Standing definitely helps, but I cant do that all day. I don't know if that is really what this is or not. I just want it to stop. The golf ball thing is exactly what it feels like. I have had my gallbladder out and it felt nothing like this. If you find anything out please post it. Maybe this helped Good luck to all of you.

29 yr male, smoke, drink occasionally, eating healthy for 5 yrs now, salad and fruits, lots of water intake. Run 1 mile per day.

Same issue, I’ve been experiencing about 2 yrs now. I try GAS-X that seems to work really well, but once the effect of GAS-X is gone it comes right back. Pain on the right side of rib cage, numbing, needling feeling, to the back and up to shoulder blade, was told it was my gallbladder or kidneys. All was normal after test.

1x MRI = normal
2x CT Scan = normal
3x Ultra Sound (2 abdomen,1 kidney)
2x xray (abdomen / kidney) = normal
Spine xray = normal
24hr Urine Analysis (low uric acid)
5 Blood Work (reveal H.Pylori & high Triglycerides) = now all normal
3x ER visit = normal
3x GI Dr = normal (says its in my mind)
2x Family Dr = says mental issue

As of now 12:00pm 03/26/09 no pain or symptoms with GAS-X. Once GAS –X is gone I feel it right away. Lots of bloating, gas, burping, and nausea.

I have had the same problem for three years now, it started after i had been sat incorrectly at my machine at work for over three years. I complained to my boss about my back and side hurting but was not given a proper industrial chair for another year after. I was also experiancing the numbness and tingleing under my ribs at my right side and the pain in my side and back. I left that place of work twelve months ago and have been working in a hotel kitchen instead. Now i am finding it difficult to do my job as im in pain every day, iv been back to the doctor and he has sent me for physiotherapy and im takeing Dicloflex and Codeine. My doctor has diognosed me with R.S.I and iv have just recently put a claim in for my previous employers negligence.

Hi everyone,

All the above sounds like what I have as well.  I have had it for 3/2 years now, sometimes seems to go away for a while, but recently has been more consistent.  I am 35 and use to drink a lot up to about 3/4 years ago.  I still drink but maybe once a week on average.  The thing is, it does seem to be a lot more aggrevated after the drink, and I have explained allt his to the doc.  I do a lot of exercising, run 4/5 times a week.  I had all the bloods done, the ultra scans,  and everything came back hunky dorey according to the doctor, except very low vitamin d, which I am on tabs for now.

I do feel fatigued a lot as well, but I put that down to the exercise a bit, although I can feel faint at anytime really. 

Even as I sit here wrinting this, I have the pressure, some which seems just under the bottom of the right rib area, and then some further down on the right, which seems to be the way when I'm sitting, its like I am squeezing something up down there.

I get the numbness sometimes when I am lying in bed, and that has been quiet disturbing, just don't feel right at all.

I have a doctor checkup in a month or so, so I am going to readdress it all then, and be a bit more assertive in needing answers, but ultimately if they aint finding anything, what can I do, bar going private to see specialists. 

I guess the alcohol (liver problems) was the one which was worrying me most, but the doc reckons its ok, so don't know where to go from here.  Kinda good to know others have the same situation (sorry if that sounds bad), but if anyone has any other advice, all welcome.

Thanks

James

I suffered for 12 years with similar symptoms.  I had all the tests you mentioned ultrasound, cat scan, hyda scan, endoscopy.  A surgeon told me that 75% of people who have all these come back negative have gallbladder inflammation.  He removed mine and they symptoms are gone!  Find a good surgeon.
