I was told by my vascular surgeon that the pain under my right ribs and into my right shoulder blade could be referred pain from the liver, possibly due to a small embolism from the celiac aneurysm to the liver. He is concerned about that for me because I have already had one aneurysm to my spleen causing a splenic infarct. (This is not common.) I will have a CT scan this week to see if my liver has any signs of an infarct. He took the symptoms related to the pain in my right side seriously. If it is, I will post to you all again this weekend. I am hoping it is nothing. (Also for me, the pain in my right ribs and shoulder blade occurred last summer and I told my vascular surgeon about it when I saw him recently. Even though I am fine now, he took what I said about the right side pain seriously.)
