i have had trouble with pain in this area in the past when my gullblader was bad once i had it removed things were normal again. sometimes stones get caught in the common duct and can be very painful. i know someone who has an ulcer and suffers from pain in this area. when the stones get stuck in the common duct it affects the panciase and is very painful too! best advice is to see your dr. as soon as posible.
