I have had moderate discomfort in my upper back and mid-ribcage every day for about 4 years. It's been getting slowly worse and I've started to get tenderness in my upper right abdomen under my right rib.
Seen GP, she suggested gallstones.
From what I've heard about gallstones, the pain is usually infrequent, very severe and linked to eating fatty food. I've almost cut out fat completely in the coupe of weeks since I saw the GP but the pain (moderate and frequent) hasn't gone.
GP said she'd refer me for an ultrasound but I haven't heard anything yet.
I'm a bit miserable with it, tbh.

Does this sound like gallstones?
