See thats funny b/c sometimes burping does help with led me to think that well maybe im a little backed up. The only organ that I can find in the upper left abdomin is the pancrese and the colon. So I was like unless its refered pain then it must be a back up <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Its not tender to puch on which is a good thing. My belly area doesnt look swollen but It just has a dull pain in the upper left part right at the base of my ribs in the front. Heck my bottle said drink 17g once a day,LOL they must not of wrote that for cf people!!! Im used to taking it at least 2-3 times a day and if it is a little blockage then I want this puppy movin like a greyhound <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

Have you ever tried colace? Over the counter... I've had to make a nice little cocktail of miralax, colace, gas-x-, and coffee :)
Finally after day 3 it worked. I always get "bound up" after a stay at the hospital for a few days.
Sometime walking (either on the treadmill or outside) works to get things movin'.

As far as the pain under the rib..I've had to same thing under both sides...sometimes I think it's the gallbladder getting pushed up by the bloating of everything else or sometimes I think it could be the liver (which could be slightly enlarged on cf'ers.)
For the left side..do you have an enlarged spleen? I do from portal hypertension. I look and feel pregnant (even though I'll never be pregnant, probably)ALL the time from all the bloating..there's just no room in there! It's very uncomforatable so I feel your pain!

Try the colace :)
Hope you feel better!
