Right upper pain: Pain in your right upper quadrant can be for various reasons. I see your provider has appropriately evaluated your gallbladder. However, if persistent issues one test to consider would be a HIDA scan. Some people can have a dysfunctional gallbladder. Right upper quadrant pain can be simply dysbiosis or pain for dysfunctional digestion. https://thedocstu.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-amazing-gut.html
