Hi,

I am sorry for the situation you are in.

1. Burping problems you are having might be related to possible acid reflux or dyspeptic syndrome. Changes in your diet and lifestyle regimen are highly recommended together with starting PPIs in the morning and antacids after each meal.

2. Pain on right side under rib cage going around to the back while gallbladder is clear but with high blood count, then, it might be due to:
- colitis
- pancreas problems (pancreatic function test advised together with abdominal ultrasound and ct-scan)
- urinary tract infection (kidney function test, urine analysis advised)

If nothing will be detected, then, spine issues to rule out by MRI.

All the best!
Dr.Albana
