I have been nausea for the past week and I went to the doctor because I was also feeling some abdominal discomfort. She thought it might be my appendix, so I had a ct of my abdomen and pelvis done. My appendix was fine, and blood work and urine came back normal, and told me it could just be a virus. I now experience pain in my back at the end of my ribs whenever it is touched or I lie down. It hurts worse on my right than my left. Could it be a kidney stone? Wouldn't that show up on a CT though? If not a kidney stone, what else could be causing the pain?
