Pain under my right rib.

So the other night I was laying in bed, when all of a sudden I had a sharp pain under my rib, and I couldn't breathe all the way in for like a minute or so (It's one of those annoying gas attacks), and I tried to force myself to breathe through it, which I think might have been a bad idea.

The next morning I awoke to having pain in the same area, but not as sharp. It lasted all day, and hurt more depending on how I moved, etc. I have been gassy as well. A little before having the initial pain, I ate bad. Very bad. I had wendy's, McDonalds, Chinese food, candy, and just a lot of bad stuff. (this was all in a 10 hour period). So I'm not too surprised of why I got the has pain.


However, me being a crazy hypochondriac, at the third day with discomfort, I went in right away to see my doctor. She did a thorough exam, squeezing the life out of my stomach and chest with her hand, and told me, she didn't think it was a gallbladder problem (which is what I was worried about). So I am still nervous. She gave me an RX for an ultrasound, if I was still nervous/still had pain. I made an appointment right away for monday, to have that done, even though she told me to wait.


Anyways, I am rambling on. My main concern is that it could be my gallbladder or something. The pain has gotten better and better, but my nerves are just as bad. I always eat bad, so this coming out of the blue would be surprising.

What could it be? It feels like "trapped gas" if thats possible.

Unfortunately I can't list symptoms because I am a hypochondriac, and I can not tell what is real, and what is not. I have been taken off of paxil and am in my third week of Cymbalta so my panic disorder and OCD are severely bad.


Could the pain be from stress?

Someone, please reassure me!


Thanks!

1st can I just say, Cymbalta is a horrible drug.  Get off of it, I went back on Effexor after trying Cymbalta for a few months & it made my depression worse.  I could tell you stories about how horrible that drug is, but won't because you'll stress over it.  Just try something else, something safer.  
The pain could be acid reflux or heart burn from the horrible foods you eat ( stop eat so badly :) and maybe you wont feel so badly)  But, for the time being, eat mild food that you know are safe and wont upset your stomach.  You knw what those foods are.  Everyone has foods that they know are mild on their stomach and wont cause an upset.  Eat em!  In a few days I bet the pain dissipates and you wont even need the ultrasound.  
It's true, what you put in your body will determine how it runs. Hope i was of some help to you.
