What Causes Pain Under Right Rib While Having Pelvic Phleboliths?

I am experiencing shap pains directly under the right rib. I have had 10 endoscopies so it s not my stomach, the gallbladder, liver pancreas, adrenal glands and left kidney are unremarkable. I d have 2 or 3 faint linear hyper densities in the right kidney though no one seems to know why this pain is constant? I also have pelvis phleboliths. What do you think could be the cause of this ongoing excruciating pain? Consultations are usually free aren t they?

Are you sure that the opacities are phleboliths (which are stones within veins) and not ureteric stones? Both may look exactly the same radiologically but the latter could be a cause of continuous and excruciating pain as the ureters get into spasm trying to push the stones out. Please visit an ufologist and get it confirmed.
