Have Pain Back, Near Liver, Below Sternum And Shoulders. All Tests Done. Taking Antibiotics. What Can This Be?

I've been in hospital twice during the last 3 weeks... first they thought it was galstones or blood clot through my lung. It started with pain in my lower back... felt like the start of labour... then it moved to the front over my liver and I had some stabbing pain too.... the to just below my sternum (very sore when I breath in ).... then I also had pain in my right shoulder and up the right ride of my neck. They could not find blood clots or galstones.... my bloods seemed normal except for CRP 92 and D-dimer 663 and after the third test they told me my liver function was slightly off...Bili 12, ALP102,GGT43,ALT61, CRP 11. By week two the pain was much less and they send me home with antibiotics. Now another week on.... I feel like something get stuck under my ribs - feels like when a baby pushes with his feet against it (not sore, but pressure).... I also get a feeling of movement in my stomach from time to time... again like when you are pregnant... I am not!!! Had my period a week ago.... and I am 46. They also found a haemangioma in my liver during the scan, but said it was small and could not have caused the pain (1-2cm). I am worried about this... something is not right.

Hello,
Welcome at HCM.

I have read details of your question.

As per your details ,it looks to be a pain due to gall bladder problem.There can be inflammation of gall bladder which is not detected by other investigations.At present you should have HIDA scan.This is a test which is able to detect the dysfunction of gall bladder,which may be the reason for your pain.

Hope this will help you.

With best wishes.
