Pain Started Under Right Rib- Now Also In Left... Posted: 02-03-05 07:27am
Have been through a # of tests... Hida
scan was normal... No stones with
ultrasound only a small polyp. Just had
a cat-scan & have not gotten results
yet. Have a endoscopy & colonscopy
next monday. What is strange, the pain
started under my right rib...With what the
doc's think was a galldbladder attack, but
now underneath my left rib is aching &
sometimes in between both ribs.
Underneath the right rib still hurts the
most & pains goes into my back, but
now the left? Anyone else had this
happen?

Absolutely my friend I am experiencing the
same thing right now the only difference
is that I had my gallbladder removed 4
years ago, like your self I too have been
through numerous test. Every test comes
back negative. My self I am trying a new
doctor next week.
4 years ago when I had my gallbladder
remove my symptoms were just about the
same. Every test came back normal finally
when I had to goto the hospital the
decision was made to remove my gallbladder
and low and behold test run on my
gallbladder after surgery showed that it
was indeed bad.
Hang in there and keep me updated and if
you are not happy with your current doctor
do not be afraid to get a 2nd or 3rd
opinion.

Thanks for the reply endsweep. Most
everything i've read online says right
sided pain. No one ever mentions the pain
can radiate to the left side as well...
Thanks again

Almost forgot to mention. I have heard of
sphincter odi (sp?) dysfunction. I've
heard that can cause similar pain as the
gallbladder pain. The surgeon i've talked
to will check that when he removes the
gallbladder, to make sure he does not have
to go back in later to fix it...Or
something to that effect...

Consider liver cyst. While they usually
do not cause any symptoms women over 50
can experience some pain. Start with
ultra sound.

I have been having the same thing.....Have
you learned anything new since this
posting? I tried doing a gallbladder
cleanse (drinking olive oil and lemon
juice) to treat the pain under my right
rib, and unfortunately threw a lot of it
up. Now I have pain under both ribs (and
some back pain)! I'd love to hear if you
know what it is yet.

Hi i'm the original poster of this
message. I had gallbladder surgery back
on april 6th. It was diseased. Had
inflammation & adhesion's all over it
& cholesterol polyps on the inside of
it.
