Pain after Gallbladder Removal

[Suffering after Gallbladder removal]

I have been suffering for 2 years.  I had my gallbladder removed
and the pain returned 2 months to the day.  I have had MRI, Endoscope, ERCP, Cat Scan, Ultra Sound.  I went to a pain management clinic and an Osteopath and even tried Acupunture

I've seen the top Gastro Doc at MGH in Boston and no one can diagnose what is wrong with me.  They left me with only one choice exploratory surgery.

Can someone email me what test they can do which will show
what this is.  It's like they never took the damm thing out.

I am reaching the end of the line.  I can't take it anymore.

I haven't slept well for 2 years.  2-4 hr  a day.

I stopped taking all the pain medicine they gave me because it
was just masking the systoms that something is really wrong.

If anyone knows a good doctor in the Boston area that can help me
please email it back to me.

The pain stays in one place right hand side just under the rib cage ( where my gallbladder used to be )

HELP ME
thanks

I was surfing the web and came across your plight and I looked under bile on the web. The reason I was surfing is that my niece is having some problems with a gall bladder infection. When I got to your page I tought to look under bile. That's when I came to the cancer information network. There it talks about bile duct cancer. Remember the Doctors who removed the gall bladder weren't looking for cancer necessarily. Now the only thing left is the bile duct which is sill, or now cancerous.

Hi to all;
I to have had my gall bladder taken out about 4 months ago! Since then I have had the worst pain in my right side under my ribs it radiates up my back, I have had every test under the sun done even a colonoscopy at the age of 22. NOTHING and nothing showed up I had a couple of (small) polyps that were removed but aside from that everything looked fine, the doctors findings were IBS! I think that
