Unlikely: It's possible that you have gall bladder dysfunction or sludge in the gall bladder which may not show up on ultrasound. Pancreatic cancer seems unlikely in view of the normal abdominal ultrasound. For the sake of completeness a ct scan of the abdomen and liver function tests may reassure you about your pancreas and liver. In the meantime try a very low fat diet.
