No Gall Bladder Yet I Have Pain
I am having cramping type pain in my upper adomin area near where I had my gall bladder removed a couple of years ago. The dull pain radiates out to the right side into my back area. Since I have had my gall bladder removed, I haven't had this type pain until today. Could something else be wrong? My stomach area seems a little swollen also.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Liver infection, stone in pancreatic duct, pancreatitis, duodenal ulcer and acidity are a few causes that need to be ruled out. If all these causes are ruled out, then it could be due to adhesions and this can only be diagnosed by laparotomy. Since a confirmed diagnosis cannot be given on net please discuss with your doctor once. You may need specialized tests to visualize the liver and pancreas. Hope this helps. Take care!
