What Causes Swelling And Pain At The Center Of The Abdomen?

I have upper pain in center of abdomen which is swollen. The right side bulges out more than left side. No fever, upper chest pains that come and go. I went to doc friday and gave me Nexium and drew blood.I was told at the time possibe AAA and enlarged gallbladder or liver. Suffered through the weekend and had a sonogram this morning. The nurse calls today to say sonogram looks good but WBC and hemoglobin elevated. Where do we go from here? She said Doc will have to look at everything and call me. Haven't heard from him. What else can this be? Heart related? SHouldn't I have an antibiotic? Or do I just continue to suffer?
