Not to be scared: The right upper quadrant is often the site for gallbladder problems. Sometimes the gallbladder can cause problems without gallstones. You need to talk to your physician about seeing a guess urologist to help. Remember there are muscles ribs Cartlidge and other structures there along with the intestine All of which need to be evaluate

Gallbladder: So the good news is that all your tests thus far are normal, aside from borderline A1c, which means pre-diabetes. Despite normal ultrasound (presumably of abdomen), your gallbladder might still be malfunctioning so you should ask for HIDA scan (http://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/hida-scan/basics/definition/prc-20015028). I'm sure that's what your doc has in mind next.
