Abdominal Pain

I am a 33 year old female that has been having abdominal pain since September.  Had my gallbladder out in September.  I was feeling fine until three weeks after they took it out.  The pain came back.  It is in the middle, left and right side of my abdomen and radiates to my back.  They did a ultrasound of my abdomen and saw nothing.  Dr. said when he took my gallbladder out, he looked around in there and say nothing.  Does anybody have the same symptoms?  I want my gallbladder back!!

Every since I had my gall bladder out 15 years ago I have been in pain.  It is mostly on the upper right side, but moves around to the center and through to my back.  I've had CTscans, upper GI series, panendoscopy, colonoscopy, x-rays - nothing shows up.  I have weeks where I just think I am dying, the pain is relentless, not truly unbearable but very painfully miserable.  I don't know what to tell you, I have heard of many other people who are in pain all the time after having gall bladder surgery.   I hope you will soon feel better and not have to suffer this forever.  There doesn't seem to be anything to help, diet or medication, that I know of.
