Can Liver Pain, Vomiting And Diarrhoea Be Related To Hypothyroidism?

I have been having pain in the area of my liver. Last night I had vomiting and diarrhea, no fever. I went to the ER earlier and they did blood work and chest X-ray. No sono and said it was muscular pain and gave me pills. They pain does not decrease with the pills so I don t really believe it is muscular. I had my gall bladder out in July and a month later started with these pain occurrences. Could it be related to hypothyroidism? After the gastric episode the bloating went down, but my abdomen started to swell again. I am i wrong to be concerned. It is not normal for me and I also have weight gain even if I don t eat. I thought it was related to medications, since before my heart attack I felt much better and have gained 20 pounds.

Weight gain o.k is the most common from your symptoms to be related with hypothyroidism, as for the others constipation is and not diarrhoea.
I think that an sono should be performed and in case an MRCP TO SEE FOR THE BILIARY TRACT. Hypothiroidism diagnosis is suspected like any diagnosis with the clinic but is decided by a hormone analysis.
