Pain on the right abdomen

I have a pain in my right abdomen which started more like a sharp pain on the rib above the abdomen and eventually moved down.The symptoms are just like those mentioned for Biliary colic though I do not lose appetite of feel tired or dizzy.


I hv had an abdomen ultrasound scan, and the results say there is no signs of cholecyststis or gall stones, with kidneys no signs of of reneral stones, hydronephrosis or parenchymal, Pancres and Retroperitoneum no masses of fluids. The aorta has a normal calibre. N o para-aortic lymph nodes. Spleen- appears within normal limits. no free ascites fluid or abdominal masses are noted. Both the psoas muscles and fossa iliaca appera uncomplicated. That is the scan report. I am now confused and do not understand were the problem could becoming from. The pain seems to be increasing with time. I have had a shoulder problem after an injury during gymnastics training 15 years ago and the problem has persisted. Could this have contributed in anyway? I also have a gastric problem and experience pain when stomach is empty or when I am too full. I will see the doctor again but I just wanted a second opinion.

I am 40 and have no prior medical problems except for the shoulder.
