strange pop under right breast, pressure/pain

Hi folks. This morning I had my usual nausea/pain/dizziness crap.

During a meeting, I had a strange feeling that something "burst" in my upper right stomach, way up high under the breast on the right side. It literally made me jump. Now there is a ton of pressure there. I am sure you could have seen it move had my shirt been off. I also feel really off. Weak.

I stupidly had some snickers minis yesterday after looking them up quickly online. When I looked them up again I regretted it.

Not that any of this is celiac related.

Has anyone had extreme pressure and a popping sensation in the right ribs? I mean, I just had a darn MRI of the bile ducts last week so I cannot imagine they would have missed something.

I am nervous because I am supposed to drive 5 hours to Mass General today and unexpectedly have to travel alone at the last minute. This would freaking happen to me today.

Weird popping sensations anyone?

Hi Ironictruth,

My sister has had a rib pop out of joint.  I don't know if it made a pop sound or not.  It did cause some pain though.

Thank you. Nope. Not a rib though. It is still randomly happening.

Randomly Happening, is this like seem to happen when you move your arm or flex in a certain direction? Does it feel like a small roll of hard tissues in a bundle in that area? It could be a knotted muscle, or a stressed ligament. When you move it could be rolling and flexing in a odd way causing the popping, pain, and inflammation. I had this in my shoulder under my shoulder blade and had to have a massage therapist work out the knots. Hopefully this might be the issue and not something internal.

It is possible that you are experiencing a large gas bubble(s) pushing through a tight turn in your intestines. I have intestines that are a bit twisted and have felt the same sort of thing on occasion.  If things don't improve be sure to mention it to your doctor though.

 you might be right. I have a tortuous colon apparently I'm not sure if you're cOlon actually goes as high as your ribs though that seems to be where most of my pressure is.

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
