Inflamed Liver? Tests are inconclusive

for over a year Ive struggled with an upper right abdominal ache, mid backache and nagging fatigue.. It feels like my liver is inflamed. Ive had several ultrasounds and a HIDA scan. All normal. Negative for Hepatitis, Celiac, etc. My labs look normal too aside from mildly elevated bilirubin. Gilberts syndrome has been suggested but I feel like they're using it as a type of catch-all. I'm mildly anemic also.. No real support from my doctors other than re-checking labs every few months.

Sometimes if I push down on my upper right abdomen it feels kind if squishy, like there might be inflammation in my liver or maybe gallbladder but none of my doctors seem to think there is really a problem. Can this all really be from the Gilberts or maybe some kind of autoimmune issue? I'm going pretty crazy with all this!
