What Causes Rib, Spine And Back Pains?

My wife just had the Dr, call with blood results and mentioned that her ALT was at 390 and she didn't get the AST#. She has been experiencing pressure/pain under the right rib cage with a sharp pain between the spine and shoulder blade on the right side of the back. When I massage, I can feel a lump like a tight muscle or something, but nothing makes it relax. She is a healthy 37 YO 5'10" and a little overweight just from having 8 children. This is all becoming very concerning for me... Should we be worried? She is scheduled for an ultrasound in the morning, but reading through all of this information, I am afraid we are both going to need psychological help after this. She does not drink, smoke, do drugs, eats a very healthy minimal card, no sugar diet.
