I am female, 53 years old, 5 foot tall, 135 lbs. I had my gallbladder removed 24 years ago, I weighed 110 lbs at the time. For the last 12 years I have had re-occurring pain under the right-side of the lower part of my rib cage that lasts for 2-10 days that is very straining. Pressure from undergarments is barely tolerable. I have had several different scopes and tests over the the last number of years the last test was in 1994. I am now experiencing another attack. I take lipitor for cholestral which is well under control. I have recently had blood work completed and level is in good standing with cholestral at 159. When I get these attacks I take Gaviscon to try to reduce the pain. Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you. This is very uncomfortable.
