I have been experiencing severe abdominal pain for the last 3 days to the point of being intolerable at times. It is in the mid and upper right quadrant. I do not have nausea, vomiting, constipation or urinary symptoms. I have had a laproscopic gallbladder removal, total hysterectomy and appendectomy. After my gallbladder was removed, I had to have an ERCP because a gallstone lodged in my common bile duct (1989). I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist next Wednesday, but I am not sure I can tolerate this pain that long. I am on Ultram 100mg every 6 hours, which does not resolve my pain.

Gastric ulcer? Does the pain change depending on when/what you eat?

Try to get your appointment moved up or if necessary, go to the ER for temporary relief. It sounds like you may have more common duct problems or possibly a hiatal hernia. Having your gallbladder removed is not necessarily the end of your problems. You may even have colitis.
