Have Pressure Under Rib Cage Down To Waist, Like Contraction And Pain In Shoulders. All Test Normal. Suggest?

I have a pressure under my right rib cage and down to my waist. It feels like a contraction that will not go away. It comes and goes. I also occasionally get a jabbing pain under my right shoulder blade, but not necessarily at the same time as the pressure under the rib cage. I have had extensive blood work, an ultrasound, CT scan and a Hidascan... They can't find anything. I am wondering if it could be my gallbladder even though the hidascan came back within normal range. ... Okay, I didn't know this was a site I had to pay for...

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
it can be gallbaldder issue which is most common cause of such pain but also liver or pancreatic issue so tests should be focused on these 2 organs as well to rule out hepatitis,pancreatitis etc. Thirs cause may be lungs disorder which can effcet that part of body. All in all, follow hepatic diet and see will condition improve.
Wish you good health. Regards
