What should I ask the doctor to look at
Symptoms, Pain in upper stomich area on right side. It at times even goes into my back like a kidney infection (rulled out by doctor) I have had a MRI that showed nothing. I have had my pancruis tested noting again. The pain is now keeping me from bending over. I am a heavy 5'7" at 280 and I have had my gallblader removerd. I have read that over weight, fatige, sleeplessness, and just down right not feeling well could be my liver. What would I have my doctor check to make sure it is not my liver? I have panals of blood test taken nothing. but the pain is getting unbearable help please.
you would not beleive all the tests I have been through. I have even had scar tissue removed. All the above has been ruled out so we are still just guessing. I have almost gotten use to the pain.
An ultrasound would probably be a good test to have done now. I can show any blockages or structural abnormalities.
I have an autoimmune liver disease and my liver function tests are now normal. They get high sometimes, maybe yours were just normal that day, you know?
As Krissyg646 said, seek a second opinon, or 3rd until you find a doctor that will help you. I went to 11 doctors before I got my diagnosis. And my pain is real and I'm sure yours is. It feels like a constant, dull, achy pain in my upper right side, kind of under my ribs. Sometimes it spreads to my mid back, sometimes I also get sharp pains. Is that how you feel? I understand your frustration but don't give up. Good luck.

My mother in law was just diagnosed with Secondary Liver Cancer. She has had the same type of pains that you are having that are supposed to be unrelated to Liver Cancer.
In my research, I did come across something called a Liver Cyst which can cause the type of pains you are having.
My suggestion with any sort of pain or illness is to seek a second opinion or a 3rd until you find a doctor that is proactive in discovering and treating your pain.
There is more than one doctor out there to help you and second opinions are a must.
Hope this helps and I hope you get the answers you deserve and need.
God Bless.
