HI, I HAVE PAIN UNDER MY RIB CAGE, TOO, WHERE MY GALLBLADDER WOULD BE IF I HAD ONE. IN MARCH THEY WENT IN TO REPAIR 7 HERNIAS-4 STRANGULATED-AND TO REMOVE ADHESIONS. I HAVE BEEN IN MORE PAIN NOW THAN BEFORE. I BELIEVE THE ADHESIONS HAVE "WRAPPED" AROUND MY LIVER. I GET NAUSEATED AND HAVE INDIGESTION. I ALSO GET INTESTINAL BLOCKAGES BUT THEY SEEM TO "RESOLVE" THEMSELVES IF I TAKE A LAXATIVE ONCE A WEE. MOST OF THE TIME I LOOK LIKE I'M 6 MONTHS PREGANT. GOOD LUCK AND I'LL KEEP YOU IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. SHERRY GRIFFIN
