Patient: I have a horseshoe kidney located right below the belly button.  I have all the symptoms that go along with gallstones and or pancreatitis.  I get stabbing pain right below the breast bone towards the naval area that then radiates to my lover back.  Had CT of belvic and abdomen and shows no inflamation but many abnormalities with organs.
