I've had this for awhile, thought it was my spleen, but had an ultrasound and they think I might have gall stones, but I have NO right side pain at all. It seems to get worse after I eat a large dinner, I bloat up, pain etc. Today haven't eaten anything but a banana and it's a very full feeling, just under ribs on left side. I'm beginning to think pancrititis?

They suspected gallstones. I know from reading up that pancreaititis can show cause left-sided pain right where I hurt. I'm scheduled for a colonoscopy on the 1st, but this is bad today, worse than it's been almost over a year, and I did an enema today and BM's have been regular. I blew up with air after I eat, which can be gastritis I know, and IBS. I was diagnosed with gastritis years ago, but rarely have that kind of pain now.

gallstones blocking the duct can cause pancreaititis I read, I suspect that's what it is.

Have they done any blood work on you? That will quickly show if it's pancreatitis.

I'm constipated, had an x-ray at ER last nite. Phillips Milk of mag last nite, still haven't gone! They said 80% of ppl who show up in ER are constipated. Hopefully this solves all my issues.
