Since my uterus has grown heavier and
larger I have a constant dull ache
underneath my right rib cage...The pain
increases at night time and the area has
now developed a slight burning sensation
and is very tender to the touch. It seems
slightly swolen in that area and it is
very painful. A doctor that I went to
before suggested gull bladder stones and
gave me a prescription for pepcid...Which
has not helped at all...Does that seem
feesible or should there be other steps
taken...Please let me know.

i really dont know how pepcid would help
with gallstones, it would help if its
indigestion , I would request an
ultrasound of your gallbladder to check,
was it a normal dr or ur ob that gave u
the pepcid?
Id go to a diff dr to get checked for sure

It was my ob's nurse practioner...I am
going to see a new doctor this friday and
I am going to request an ultrasound so
hopefully we can find out what the deal
is. I didn't understand why she told me
to take pepcid either, and several other
people have said the same thing that you
have. Thank you for your help though.
