What kind of tests have you had? Is the pain constant or do you have attacks? What exactly does it feel like? Is it severe..does it feel like you're hungry? what?
Have you ruled out chronic cholecystitis?

: My doctor said I have IBS. He put me on medication six weeks ago..I see him again today and nothing has changed. When I lay on my side, I have the feeling that a mass or something is hanging inside me. It feels like my bowel is rolling into my fat roll. No, I am not a fat person, but my stomach is bloated and when I lay on my side everything seems to roll over to my right side. When I sit perfectly straight up the pain is just below my right rib cage. Am I going crazy or is there soomeone out there that has this problem also? Mentally this thing is really getting to me. Thanks, for listening to me! Nan
