Liver problems or not?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi everyone,

i am desperate for any advice or help with regards to possible liver problems.

i am 44 years of age, drink once in blue moon and non smoker, been told my bmi is perfect at 6'6" and 15 stone.

i am having severe aching and paining under right rib cage, sprightly side of torso and right hand side of back.

on top of this I get a bubbling sensation/gurgling most times when I eat, can last up to 3 hours or even longer sometimes.

i had an ultrasound back in March and found I had a slightly fatty liver but nothing to worry about.

recently had blood test done and ct scan, everything come back normal.

but my pains keep getting worse, I feel like I'm losing my mind.

im 14 weeks post op of my second hiatus hernia hernia operation, and suffering with eating certain foods.

my doctors have said I'm all good, but the pains on the right hand rib cage are definitely getting worse and worse.

i don't know what to do or go about proving it may or may not be my liver.

would appreciate any advice.

sorry one other thing, I have taken omephrazole for 20 years now due to acid reflux and only recently managed to come off them due to second operation.

help please.

thanks

    Just a thought, maybe Cotochondritis? Inflammation of the cartilage between the rib bones.
