Left Upper Abdominal pain?


I been having this pain on my left upper abdominal , also pain on my left upper back
now this pain is traveling to my right side around liver area i aslo get pain on the pit of my stomach. And also i have this burning sensation on my forearms .Im not throwing up , but I had some green stools when using the rest room . and when they do come out brown the are floating. I had my blood work, CT Scan , Stomach X Ray , to check on my pancreas and every thing came up normal . Now Im going to get a Ultrasound done on me this saturday to look for gallstones which i dont think thats the problem, because i dont think gallstones would cause pain on my upper left side of my stomach. My mother in law had gallstones and she told me her pain was on the right side. Im just wondering can gallstones cause pain on left side too?? What are the best ways to check on my pancreas . Or can any one tell me what else can cause these symptoms i describe to you??

RUQ(right upper quad) is liver gallbladder pancreas. I'm surprised Ct was done before sono, but sometimes they are done after Ct. Ct's and MRI's are a lot more costly than ultrasounds too. Maybe they couldnt see what they were looking for on Ct so theyre doing sono.Don't know what would cause pain though,

If the pain travels to the scapula....I would say....that you may just be having gas or a mild gastroentritis which is causing flatulence. Take it easy. Eat mild food, go low on milk and milk products and stuff that has lots of fat in it.
Yes pain from one side of the abdomen can irradiate to the other side, but from what you say...i would say that is not so in your case.
If you had gall stones you would know it -- the pain would tell you.
But do get your ultrasound done to be on the safe side.

I think that if all the other testing you had came back normal then you should definatly look at the gallbladder. Actually I would have suggested that first after I heard all of the symptoms. You should be just fine.
