Does fatty liver cause pain under the right rib? I read through the internet and some people don't realize they have it.
I have many post about my gallbladder removal. I had it removed about a year ago. I started to have problems though. I had diarrehea, nausea or indigestion, pain under right rib, I was tired, belching, and all this caused my anxiety to come back. I felt like I couldn't take care of my kids to my full capacity anymore because of the slight pain I was going through. My whole summer was spent visiting the doctor for testing. I had just about every test a gasterologist could give you and he told me it was all in my head. I even had a colonoscopy done and I am 42 years old. I started acupuncture and meditation thinking it was anxiety or depression causing all this. I did discover Welchol which absorbed the bile in my stomach and I don't have diarrehea anymore. I was eating right and lost 50 lbs but I have another 60 to lose. I come to grips that I have to live like this. So for about 3 months I was feeling really good no stomach problems everything was quiet and I had a little anxiety. About a week ago it seems to have come back (all the symptoms I mentioned above) - My pain under right rib returned. I don't know if this is stress or anxiety causing this. I know that I am going through some slight depression and I cry sometimes but I wouldn't think it would cause these problems. I recently went to my doctor to get a complete physical and she said you have to lose weight because my liver enzymes were slightly elevated and it might be your fatty liver. I worried about that after she told me but then I started to exercise more and eat less to lose. I have gone through some horrible stress with the swine flu scare and other family issues and I thought maybe my stress is catching up with me. I am like thinking the worst like I have some severe liver problem and I am going to have to be rushed to the hospital. I also feel like I can't go anywhere when I have this pain because I think it will get worse if I am in public. HAs anyone gone through this or do you think my anxiety is causing all this???
