ultrasound was done and concluded that there is no gallstone. thanks

Though you're feeling better be sure to follow up with you doctor. Request an ultrasound of your gallbladder to look for gallstones. If you have gallstones discuss having your gallbladder removed. The pain you are describing is text book when it comes to gallstones. Pain in the upper right abdomen, that radiates to you upper right back.
If you experince that this pain gets worse and you are vomitting with a fever you may have a stone stuck in the common bile duct. This is extremely dangerous and could lead to pancreatitis. It's effects range from mild to severe and if an infection ensues even death.

thanks so much for the help. i went back to the hospital and did gastroscope test which shows that my stomach had some wounds. the doctor gave me RABEPRAZOLE SODIUM ENTRIC-COATED CAPSULE.  I'm feeling fine now. thanks alot. Its not easy for us the foreigners here in China as far as medico is concern.

If the cimetidine helped you, you probably have acid reflux/GERD.  I would recommend you try a GERD-friendly diet.

i doubt if it's constipation. i saw a doctor and he prescribe me cimetidine. The cimetidine actually cools the pain but for a very short period of atmost 2 hours. the pain is felt in my upper abdoment and then spread through my back. the night pain is more severe. please help me out with any perfect idea. thanks alot

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  Do you mean that you are constipated?  Did you mean to say that the medicine that you are taking is cimetidine?  Have you seen your doctor about this?
