Hi.
You may be right. But in occasional cases there can be a referred pain from the lower lung / pleura.
You have to undergo X-ray chest and X-ray of the abdomen in the standing position and ultrasonography to determine the cause. Get another opinion of another Doctor to get a clinical diagnosis. and a prescription for the treatment .
This can be due to gall stone disease or intestinal obstruction as the pain you are suffering from is of the nature of spams.
