upper right side pain under ribs

[Babytd]

I went for HIDA scan today the number was 27(not sure what is norm)  I am having sharp pain under right rib cage and major tightening when i eat something.  Pain and tenderness between breast bone.  Im amazed how many people have thus issue.  Any advise- i get a endoscopy next week.

Well I have to have my gallbladder out but when they did the gallbladder ultrasound they saw "an abnormality on my kidney". So now I have to have a renal ultrasound-any ideas what an abnormality may be?

There are a lot of reasons why your white blood cell count could be low.

The Mayo Clinic website lists a ton of possibilites:

If you are really concerned about it, I would ask your doctor a bunch of questions. Take care!

Yes it was 27% ejection fraction.  And yes fatty foods increase pain.  Also any idea my White blood cell count is low for last few months-the level was 3.5, 2.2 and the last on 2.8??

Was 27 the percentage of ejection fraction of your gallbladder? If so, that is not very good. Usually such a low ejection fraction leads to gallbladder removal.

Does the sharp pain you experience occur after a heavy or fatty meal?
