Pain In Rib, Back, Dark Urine, Medications And Food In Bowels, Cat Scan Done, Diagnosed Umbilical Hernia. Suggestion?

I am a 47 year old female and have been having severe pain in my right side in between my navel and under my right rib, a lot of pain around to the right side of my back, sometimes worsens after eating, feel full quickly often have acid reflux and sleep sitting up, my stomach always feels bloated and I am always in pain on my right side, I do have dark urine and in the last few days when I have a bowel movement, some of the medications that I take are in my stool still as though I haven't even swallowed them, like they were just taken out of the bottle and also some foods are still in tact. My doctor says it's nothing and last week I had a cat scan on my stomach and he says everything is fine that I just have a small umbilical hernia and nothing needs to be done, but I am in severe pain and it effects my everyday life especially at work, what can I do I am in to much pain for nothing to be wrong!

Hi,
Get evaluated by a gastroenterologist to see if your umbilical hernia is strangulated. strangulated hernia can lead to intestinal obstruction which may be causing you pain and other symptoms. Dark urine may be due to inadequate intake of water and other fluids.
