Needs work up
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking!
As you already had a reflux issues so i suspect a biliary involvement. You should get some hepatobiliary work up like ultrasound abdomen, liver functions profile, pancreatic functions assessment, renal functions assessment.
The likely possibilities are for biliary colic, renal calculus, IBS, cecal diverticulitis etc.
Of all the worries cancer should be the last one. That has totally different presentation usually painless so stop worrying and seek a gastroenterologist, let them do some work up and get a complete clinical correlation for you.
Antispasmodics for the pain, soft and fibrous diet and plenty of fluids to judicious intake ( 2 litres a day minimum) is advised. Seeka gastroenterologist and let them sort it out for you.
Take care. Don't forget to close the discussion please.
