Okay it is possible my mom had her gall bladder removed. I will talk to my doctor about that. Thank you!

A HIDA scan will determine the functioning of the Gallbladder which can't be determined with an US.

Has a Gallbladder issue been ruled out?  i.e. HIDA Scan of the Gallbladder and/or an US of the Gallbladder?

I was only getting it once or twice a month but the past three days ive gotten it but only in the evening. The pain is between my ribs just under my breasts. Sometimes underneath the left rib cage as well. But its a pain that just hurts and nothing gets rid of it unless I sleep.

Chronic or Acute Pancreatitis would more painful,  the pain would be constant (24/7) and the pain wouldn't be located between the ribs but epigastric.

I am confused.  Are you experiencing this once per month or daily?

Have you had your amylase AND lipase levels checked?
Seems as though this could be related to Chronic pancreatitis.

What is your diet and activity like?  

Taking any medications at this time?  Medical conditions?

Doesn't sounds like GERD.
