I have had all your symptoms (except the elevated liver enzymes but do have the under the ribcage "fullness" feeling). I had CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis in the beginning of October just because of it and came out clean (and got a bone scan just to scan everything - again its clean). I feel mine is muscular as it bothers me more when I do toning exercises (situps etc from some of the old Jane Fonda workout tapes). But there is nothing there. I get worse after Herceptin infusion - runny nose, cheek pressure (like my eyes are going to pop right out of my head). The rt side abdomen "fullness" comes and goes. Onco is a great doctor and said that one of his other patients on Herceptin has this too and does not have liver mets (but does have bone mets which is why she was put on it a couple of years ago anyway).

I will say that getting the clean scans really made me feel better about everything.

Best regards
