For about 15 months I have had pain in my right upper qudrant.
It is relieved by lying down and sometimes by taking 10mg of
bentyl...It is wose in the evening and is usually accompanied by a pain
in the mid-back.
All GI tests - scoping, ultra sound of the RUQ, amylase and other tests
focussing on gall bladder , liver and pancreas were negative
One GI doctor thinks it might be a musulo-skeletal problem.
Any ideas or similar experiences?
This morning it was accentuated by sitting and reaching up for
something...The pain starts at the pit of my stomach and radiates to
the right - just under the ribs.
Thanks
Ken

Yup, there are trigger points there.
Look at the new book by Clair Davies (an RMT).
It is a good summary of what everyone should know about pain relief for
MSK (musculo-skeletal) problems.
It is believed by Physical Medicine (physiotherapy physicians) types that
about 85% of undiagnosable back/trunk pain is of MSK-origin.
Crazy, eh?
