Q: right side back pain and lump below rib cage

Confused Started Nov. 14 and after two ER visit, a clinic visit, and a visit to the surgeon. I have no answers. Can anyone suggest what I do next? Here are the symptoms and what has been done and the results.
I have been having back pain on my right side below shoulder blade when I eat. I have a lump or hard area right side just below rib cage area, hurts when touched. I have hardness just below my sternum. I have nausea and vomiting after I eat. My pain is worst after eating. My EKG normal, all blood work normal except a slight elevated one liver enzyme, ultra sound normal no gallbladder stones inflammation. Ultrasound showed a enlarged vein in liver. HITA scan showed normal gallbladder function. Shortness of breath and left chest pain sometime comes and goes. Food isn't being digestived fully especially carrots and nuts and green leafy stuff like salads. No fever, was on Allie diet pills for three months, this started shortly after I stop taking them. Have been on Prilosec and Protonix neither have helped. Had a (GI cocktail) test didn't help. Pain level is at a continually about a 4. After I eat it is at 6-7 pain.
