Hello dear user!
Welcome to HCM and thank you for sharing your concerns with us!
I'm sorry for the situation you are in!

Pain around and under the ribs may be caused by too many conditions that affect, the abdomen, chest, ribs and muscles etc.
It may be caused by, gastritis, peptic ulcers, liver diseases (you say you don't have gallbladder), pancreatitis, cardiac diseases, inflammatory conditions of muscles and ribs, etc.
Additional examinations and test are needed to have a better view of this situation.

I would recommend you the following tests and examinations:

- Chest x-ray
- ECG
- Abdominal ultrasound
- Liver and kidneys function indicators
- Complete Blood count, lipids and sugar
- Complete urine count

After you get the results we will be able to have more information of your current health status, and we will find if something is going wrong in your body. After that your primary doctor will give you the proper cure or instructions to pass this condition.

Feel free to contact us again for further information and details.
I hope you will be fine soon.
Take care!
DR ERIOL.
