Hi . I am new to this group. One of my first pain symptoms was what I described to Drs as a "football" under my rt rib. When I read your post I could totally relate. I had several CT scans, an MRI, a HIDA scan, an endoscopy and a colonoscopy , lots of blood work and stool cultures. All normal findings. UUGHH. I finally ok'd the removal of my gallbladder. I still have the pain! I have been to a GI specialist but only had one visit. She suspects IBS- PI. I had the rotovirus in Guatemala in July and then another GI illness in October. The football pain started in November. I can eat a VERY limited diet and have lost 20 lbs since October. If you find anything to help the football pain please share. I am very frustrated as I am sure you are also. I am on Nortriptylin and Bentyl.
