First: please, don't shout! Turn off your caps lock.

Next, what problem are you specifically talking about? There are quite a few recurrent problems talked about. One in particular is the pain under the left ribs.

Yes my quest was about the pain on the left side of my body. It depends on how I sit also, the pain is not as intense as others,but I do realize that their is a problem there. I started to notice the pain about 6 or 7 months ago. I was diagnosed with an UTI and it was taken care of, about one month of taking medication prescribed for the UTI the pain started to come back. I also wonder could it have something to do with my surgery. I had my gaulbladder removed 10/2005. It is not a sharp type pain,but more of like something is just sitting in my body type of feeling. If I sit or lean to the left side of my body I can really feel the pain right under my rib cage also.. I don't know If I explained the pain to make it understandable,but maybe some one can help,because the UTI prescription did nothing for me.

p.s. sorry about the caps lock'd thing Very
Happy

I'd see your GP and tell them again. Specify exactly where the pain is coming from.

What is gp? The pain is under my rib cage, I'd say all the way to the left side of where my belly button is. I can feel it as I'm sitting in my office chair. I have to constantly lean to the right side of my body to avoid the pain.
