My pain is always worst at night. That is the only time I really need help sometimes, so I have tramadol for that when those terrible times come.

Feeling better lying down, suggests something in the spine to me.
Thank you for reply. You did mention spine. One doctor mentioned that, too. At CT scan showed gall stones and I ended up go to gastro MD. He said it might be something in spine because I would feel better lying down and even standing up.

I ended up not getting gall bladder taken out as MD didn't think it was bothering me.
