Right Side Pain, Indigestion
I've been experiencing a minor dull pain on my right side behind the lower ribs. I've also had trouble digesting oily/greasy foods, as when I have them, I end up feeling sick and have an upset stomach. On a few occasions after eating a meal/snack I experience multiple hours of severe cramping/pain in my stomach area. I am often constipated, and after the constipation I may experience diarrhea. These symptoms lead me to think Gallstones are the problem, but a recent ultrasound found nothing.
