What Causes Severe Right Side Abdominal Discomfort And Constipation?

I have been experiencing constipation for years, I am a 49 year old female and for the past 9 month s I have been experiencing severe abdominal discomfort on my right side and I am very bloated. I constantly feel so full up to my throat and I regurgitate sometimes, therefore I dread eating. I am under doctors care and am taking acid reflux medicine since 2003 as well as medicine for IBS called Creon since November 4, last month and Hyoscyamine for pain. These two medicines for IBS lessened the symptoms a little for about a month but now my symptoms are severe again. I did have an endoscopy at the beginning of November and it showed gastritis in the antrum and a ring in the gastroesophageal junction for which a dilation was done. I feel something is wrong in my right side, I feel a constant uncomfortable feeling in one area. What else could this be?
