question: I am a 64 year old diabetic who has developed symptoms recently that I am concerned about. I have a constant pain of different strength under the lowest rib on my right side. It eases when no belch, pass gas, or evacuate my bowel. Yet I never feel like me bowel is ever totally empty, and have some distension in my abdomen. I am frequently warn out in spite of sleeping well. I take inseparable for acid reflux as well as a probiotic.
