Question : I have had pain under my rib cage, in my right side, and back, nausea , vomiting , heartburn, weight gain, weight loss, bloating, lack of appetite , never feeling full and diarrhea on and off for over a year. I've had a colonoscopy that was normal. 3 ultra sounds , 1 showing stones and 2 did not. A hida scan that was normal. I have gone up and down 10 to 15 pounds in a 2 week period. Sometimes greasy food upsets my stomach sometimes it doesn't. All these systolic started just about 1 year ago. Everyone keeps saying gallbladder but most of the test disagree. Could it still be my gallbladder?
