right upper quard pain

I have been having intermittent R.U.Q.P. for over 2 years and despite ultrasound, xray  My md cannot tell me what the cause is.   the pain is very sharp when it occures and it radiates to the back.   It comes on at anytime. I could be asleep, sitting up, working etc.  But never induced by eating.   What could it be?   Not a drinker of alcohol, no history of liver, gall bladder, or pancreatic problems.  PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Suggest keeping a daily diary of everything you eat and drink.  Include how it was prepared   ( fried, baked, grilled, steamed)  and what condiments and spices used ( butter, salt etc...). Include your activities, exercise, etc.. Also include the times of occurance, length of duration, and the intensity of the pain on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the worse pain you ever experienced. This will help your MD with is diagnosis - don't forget to take this info with you.
Also ask you PMD for a full blood workup again. And just because your above mentioned medical problems aren't in the past or family history, doesn't necessarily mean they aren't occurring now.

Have you consulted a specialist?  Frequently items cannot be found until further testing is down.  You did not mention if you have had any tests.  Hope you can find out what is wrong.
