Constant Pain In Area Below The Ribs, Please Suggest
Two years ago my mother, 49, had her cholecyst removed. Since then she feels constant pain in area below the ribs and she has a big abdomen (like she's pregnant) though she is not fat at all. My mother can't eat because after meal she feels pain. What can you say about it? I really need your help.

Cholecystectomy - thats it. The surgeon knows nothing. Other specialists are not able to make a clear diagnosis. Thats why i'm seeking an answer in the internet.
