Upper Right Gi Tenderness

I seem to have upper right tenderness when i bloat, but not any where else. It is right below my ribcage on the middle/right side. I think it is possible inflammation in my Duodenum. Does anyone else get this. Shouldnt the inflammation in my duodenum go down (this was where my doctor took a biopsy 7 months ago and diagnosed me with celiac. It makes it hard to breath at times. Anyone relate, could this be some other issue. It seems to swell up a little off and on throughout the day.

have you had your gallbladder and pancraese (okay I just totaly botched the spelling of that, i'm having a senior moment here) checked? that is typically where the gallbaldder is located. i had a gallbladder attack late last year before being dx'ed- ugh. worse pain of my life!

yep, sounds like the gall bladder.

You might want to try going grain and dairy free for a bit...

I agree, it sounds like a gallbladder issue. I actually had mine removed two years before I was even tested for celiac disease. I had intense pain in my upper right quadrant, (under the ribcage). Since I wasn't the "typical" patient for a gallbladder issue, I suffered for about a month before they would finally listen to me. Turns out I did have a problem with my gb....I didn't work at all! I was 21 at the time and very thin so I didn't fit the stereotypical gallstone patient, but they ended up giving me some test that monitors the flow of the gb and realized that I didn't work at all. I truly believe that if they would have tested me for celiac disease first I would still have my gallbladder. My mother has also had the same symptoms....intense pain on the right side, under the rib cage. She had her gb removed a year before me. Nothing helps the pain, (I was on Morphine in the ER for 2 days and it didn't touch that spot!) Good luck...I hope this helps!

It is not painful at all, just tender to the touch when bloated.

I'm having the same trouble but on the left side. I had a ultra-sound done two days ago but everything looked normal, my doctor said. It doesn't feel normal, so I'm frustrated. I do know I have a hiatal hernia, so maybe that's it. You may want to try the symptom checker on Web MD . . . that might help you scope out the possibilities.

I hope you feel better soon.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.
