I had lyme disease in June. Ever since then I ve had pain and burning under my right rib cage and pain around my back. My doctor thought it was gallbladder problems. I had a ct scan and it was negative. I have an appointment with a gastro doctor on the 16th. The pain is getting worse and is constant. Any ideas on what it could be? Nothing makes it worse or better
Hellos per your description of the clinical symptoms it seems that the followings can be probable reason for your discomfort- 1. As already described by your physician the most probable cause could be a pathology of the Gall bladder (cholecystitis or cholelithiasis).2 The second most probable cause could be a pathology of the liver or the hepato-biliary system. It should accompany certain other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia, flatulence etc.3. Any kind of muscle spasm or sprain.4. A Costco Chat Doctor. A USG of the whole abdomen and blood tests (liver function test) may give you a diagnosis. Please visit your Gastroenterologist for further evaluation and man agent. Thank you.
