Pain in right side of stomach under ribs

[pooh1109]

I have been experiencing abdominal pain on the right side about 3 inches under my ribs.  The pain radiates in my back and upwards towards my shoulders, but not in the shoulder area.  I occasionally get a twinge of pain in the left side of my abdomen also, but not nearly as often as the right.  When this began nearly two months ago, I thought it was a kidney stone because I have medullary sponge kidneys and have had lots of kidney stones.  I saw my urologist, and he did an xray, and saw a stone on my left side but not the right.  He said that he can't tell me for sure that it's not a kidney stone.  But With the pain that I'm experiencing in my stomach, I feel like it's not a kidney stone at all.  I have experienced some symptoms that would make me think it's a kidney stone, I've felt the cutting feeling inside like when a stone is actually getting ready to pass.  But I haven't seen any stones whatsoever.  I have also been experiencing a lot of headaches, which I normally don't get.  And I've also had a lot of dizzy spells, sometimes one a day, sometimes 4 a day.  It's like when you get up too fast and you feel like you're going to black out and you get off balance for a moment.  Most of the time when it happens I am either getting up or sitting down.  But I have had the dizzy spells when I was simply standing.  I don't know if these are related or not.  But I felt like I should give you all of the symptoms.
