Extreme right side pain under my rib cage

I had Pancreatits due to a bad Gall Bladder a year ago.  Since then I have been pretty healthy until recently.  About 8 weeks ago I started getting these severe pains in my right side under my rib cage.  When I take a deep breath it is like someone is stabbing me.  I have no fever and this pain is re-occuring.  Some days I am fine, others I can't move.  I have been to the emergency room twice.  The first time they told me my liver enzymes were real high but there was no sign of pancreatits and they sent me home with pain killers.  The second time they did and ultra sound, found nothing, and again sent me home on pain killers.  Has this happened to anyone?  I am scared but tired of going to the ER to be told to go home and rest.

i have the same problem! No one seems to know what it is and it sounds like such a pain to go through costly medical testing. i have been getting these pains every time i run for the past year and a half and i run at least three times a week. it never ends! i would think it was a stitch, but why would it only happen on the right side and why does it happen every time without fail, even though i am a regular runner?!

What does posting stuff have to do with not having insurance. Some people have really bad pains and are hurting. If it was you, you might understand just saying.
