Chronic Epigastric Pain with Endometriosis: Anyone Else?

Anyone else with endo have chronic right sided epigastric pain? Typically after eating? I get extreme pain in the RUQ of my abdomen (under my ribs) any time i eat anything, the pain lasts anywhere from 2-6 hours and then it's time to eat again. I also have POTS and when I have chest pain flares that flares up too. I've seen 2 GI doctors and an rheumatologist for it for 2 years and no one had answers or ideas. I recently started seeing an endometriosis specialist and have surgery upcoming, I mentioned the symptoms and the nurse told me they see that alot. Given that no one has found anything on scans she thinks it's endo related, but we'll know more when they take a look during the procedure. Just curious if this is a problem others have and if it was related to endometriosis?

RUQ pain especially after eating is very likely to be gall bladder related unless yours has already been removed.

that's what we thought too but it looks good on imaging. Thank you, though!

I occasionally get pain there, but I have a tumor on my liver (apparently they are more common than you think?) I'm assuming you've had your liver looked at tho

I haven't specifically had my liver checked, I'll do some research and bring it up to my doctor is surgery doesn't show anything. Thank you! Hope you're feeling well!

I had surgery for that but instead they found tons of adhesions. Causing bowl movements to be painful. And who knows what else.
