Gallbladder removed two years ago, similar pain higher up

Two years ago I had my gallbladder removed due to gallstones. Over the past two years I had the same pain off and on but within the last two weeks I've had it every time I eat any amount of fat. It is a severe pain, just like the gallstone pain, the only difference being that it is slightly higher up, just below my right breast as opposed to below my right ribcage. I mentioned it to my doctor, who said she'd book me for an ultrasound, but only after I insisted it was a severe pain, happening often. I went to the emergency room one night for it, after waiting four hours the doctor simply gave me two atasol 30s and sent me on my way without doing any tests, even blood tests. Has anybody else had any experience with this or know what could be the cause of it? I also have to take cholesytramine every day otherwise I get a very upset stomach, I've been like this since I had the gallbladder removed, although I always had an upset stomach throughout my life. It's very frustrating to have had the surgery and still have all these complications. What are the chances I'll have to have surgery again??

In addition to the ultrasound, ask the doc to run an MRCP to look at the structural characteristics of your biliary system. It will check to see if there are changes, or if you could have retained a stone or developed a new one.
