Question: I have been feeling stomach pain (above the waistline and below the rib cage for about 10 days now. It is off and on throughout the day and seems to not hurt when I wake up in the morning but becomes worse as the day goes on. Another symptom is I have no energy. I usually workout at a gym 3 days a week and golf and surf on the weekend but the last 2 weekends I have not had the energy to do these activities, as if my body is fighting something. Today I sat at a BBQ with no activity for 3 hours and came home and was exhausted even thought I slept 8 hours last night.

Here are my answers to your questions:

After studying in context of this and the last query, I feel that it would be nice if you update following areas as follows- I believe the symptoms from the last query are unrelated to this query, last time it was suspected to be skeletal or back/nerve related. I had 2 visits to a chiropractor and the symptoms went away.

Which side of rib cage this stomach pain is there? The pain is in the area above my waist line and below my rib cage, mostly in the middle but I feel it on the left and right sides below the front of my rib cage.

Is this pain related with your work activity and with your diet intake? I have an office job and it doesn't seem to be work related, the pain is there at work, at home, when I go to bed, pretty consistently. It seems a little worse after I eat a meal but the pain is there all the time.

What type pain is it? Is it burning/or dull ache /or mild cutting pain with colic with it? It is an ache or pain that is maybe a 5 or 6 on a scale from 1 to 10.

How frequently you smoke/ drink alcohol, beer/ and have spicy fried non-veg food? I do not smoke. I drink alcohol about 3 nights a week, typically 1-3 beers. I don't eat a lot of spicy food, I have Thai food or XXXXXXX food about once every 2 months, other than that most of my diet is not very spicy.

What is your day's work schedule and diet schedule? I work Monday - Friday from 7:30am to 6:00pm in an office environment sitting at a desk mostly. I eat breakfast at 6:30am usually yogurt, banana, and cranberry juice, I eat lunch at noon, usually a sandwich, or something similar, and I eat dinner about 7:30pm usually pasta or fish or beef or a variety of foods.

How frequently you take tea/coffee in a day? I typically drink 3 cups of XXXXXXX Grey black tea a day usually in the morning.

I understood your life style which is very hectic and stressful for your age.
Any past history of any medical illness and any medications for that in the past or in present?
I haven't had any major medical illnesses and i have never had to take medications for an extended period of time. I had a sinus infection at the end of July and took a 10 day prescription of Augmentin antibiotic to get rid of the infection (July 25 - Aug 5th). I take Advil (Ibuprofen about 2-3 times a week if I get a headache or have muscle soreness after working out or after I have been drinking alcohol (beer) to prevent getting a headache.

Any past CT/USG studies with its reports? Please update them. - No

Update any past tests from GI (Gastro-intestinal) endoscopist and any reports when the gallbladder removal was done? These tests were not done.

Why your gall bladder was removed, was it for gall stones or Cholecystitis? I had gall stones which caused a gall bladder attack 3 times in a 6 month period and each time it was a gall stone blocking the duct leaving the gall bladder and the Gastroenterologist I saw recommended removing the gall bladder which was done, that was in 2008.

Awaiting further query and more information as asked above, so as to help you out from the missed diagnosis since July 15 attack.
