Hi. I am having a really bad cramping pain in my left side under my rib that shoots down to just above my hip bone. I've had pain on this side since my gallbladder was taken out a few months ago. It was sore to the touch and I'm calling tomorrow for endoscopy. I was wondering if anyone had an idea what is going on. Tonight I have really sharp pains there now and I'm considering waking my husband up to take me to the hospital. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
