Tummy,

I have heard of this right sided rib and back pain by someone

with CP once before. The pain had gotten to the point that pain

relievers weren't even helping, and leaning forward was a much

more comfortable position than sitting upright.

It turned out that this person had a blocked bile duct, and that

was what was causing the pain. Since you are seeing your

surgeon on Wednesday, maybe they could check on this for you.

I'm not saying that's what it is, just saying that I've heard this

complaint before, and that's what it was.

I hope you are feeling better today.

With hope and prayers,

This is the location of my pain .....under right rib and it goes straight

through to the back. If I watch my diet really close the pain is minimal but if

I slip at all and consume too much fat......whooosh....I look as though I'm nine

months pregnant and the pain gets bad. Leaning over the couch was the only way

to relieve some of the distress. My pain is always there to some degree.......I

wish I knew what causes it......since I've given up on doctors. I'm counting on

you all to find out what causes this.........Pam ga

During attacks, my pain is always in the right upper quadrant,

running along ribs and radiating to my back.

Leaning forward has been the only position that I've been able to

hold during those episodes. I also found that sitting in a tub of

warm to hot water has helped ease the pain for a while.

I always know when my EUS blocks are wearing off because the pain

returns to that exact area each and every time.

I can't even allow our cats to climb on that part of my torso.

It will always cause pain, even with a block.
