A member asked:

I had a pancreatitis attack about a month ago. i'm still experiencing stomach discomfort and pain where my pancreas is. pain in the right side below breast in rib cage. pain radiating around to the back. should i still be experiencing pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastroenterologist: Discomfort in the right upper abdomen radiating around to the back is characteristic of gall bladder pathology. Gall stone disease can cause pancreatic inflammation. What were the findings on a gall bladder ultrasound? Any stones? Any sludge? I believe a gastroenterologist is best qualified to evaluate your symptoms and investigate further. See an abdominal surgeon if gall bladder pathology found
