Have you seen a doctor?  You may have Crohn's or Irritable bowel syndrome or worse.  Get checked.

Sounds like your appendice, but if it last for much longer go to the emergency room, it could be something like cramp or maybe constipation

Appendix possibly.  Have you a fever?  Vomiting?  Diarrhea?\nIf could also be Irritable Bowl Syndrome, Colitis, or if you are a female it could be an ectopic pregnancy.\nDepending upon the severity of the pain go to the doctor or emergency room (casualty).  Good luck!

That's a damn shame, but I feel you.  I had back and stomach pain for over a year (back in 1989) and I saw orthopedists and rheumatologists and they couldn't find anything wrong with me.  Finally, they did a Hida scan and found my gallbladder was full of stones.  They opened me up to take it out and finally found the REAL problem.  My colon had ruptured from diverticulitis and was leaking poison into my abdomen.  I would have died.  But 23 year olds don't normally get diverticulitis, so they never thought to check it out.  \n\nTalk to your friends.  Ask them who they go to and if they like them.  That's the best way-word of mouth-to find a good doctor.  There are so many, you have to keep trying.  Tell them about your past experiences and what you need from them.  Time and respect.  That's not too much to ask for.  I bet you'd settle for someone who was at least a great diagnostician even if their bedside manner wasn't all that, huh?

I know you said you've already had you're gallbladder tested,but I am suggesting you get it tested again by a urologist.The reason behind this is because he/she can do a test involving dye injected into your gallbladder to see if it is even working.I had the same symptoms for years and had this test done,found out I had a diskenetic(none working gallbladder)that caused me a great deal of pain.I had the laproscopic surgery to have it removed and no longer have that pain.Best wishes on finding out results!

I would see another health care type person.  No movement in a week is really excessive.  See another doctor or  try one of those colon health type practitioners.

The cause of abdominal problems can be hard to pinpoint. Sometimes minor and serious abdominal problems start with the same symptoms. Fortunately, most abdominal problems are minor, and home treatment is all that is needed.\n\nMany times the exact cause of abdominal pain is difficult to determine. The severity of your pain, its location, and other symptoms you have may help determine what is causing the pain.\n\n    * Generalized pain occurs in half of the abdomen or more. Generalized pain can occur with many different illnesses and will usually go away without medical treatment. Indigestion and the stomach flu are common problems that can cause generalized abdominal pain. Home treatment may help relieve some of the discomfort. Generalized mild pain or crampy pain that becomes more severe over several hours may be a symptom of a blockage of the intestines (bowel obstruction).\n    * Localized pain is located in one area of the abdomen. Localized pain that comes on suddenly and is getting worse is more likely to be a symptom of a serious problem. The pain of appendicitis may start as generalized pain but often localizes to one area of the abdomen. The pain from gallbladder disease or peptic ulcer disease often starts in one area of the abdomen and remains in the same location. Localized pain that gradually becomes more severe may be a symptom of inflammation of an abdominal organ.\n    * Cramping, which can be very painful, is rarely serious if it is relieved by passing gas or a stool. Many women have cramping pain with their periods. Unless it gets worse, lasts for longer than 24 hours, or localizes, generalized cramping pain is usually not cause for concern. Cramping that starts suddenly with diarrhea or other minor health problems can be quite painful but is usually not serious.\n\nOccasionally, severe pain that develops suddenly may be a symptom of rupture of the stomach or intestines (perforation), torsion of the testicle or ovary, a kidney stone, gallbladder disease, or blood flow problems. The pain caused by appendicitis or gallbladder disease may increase with movement or coughing. Pain that increases with movement or coughing and does not appear to be caused by strained muscles is more likely to be a symptom of a serious problem. A visit to a health professional is usually needed when severe abdominal pain comes on suddenly, or new and different mild pain slowly becomes more severe over several hours or days.\n\nAfter a minor abdominal injury, pain, nausea, or vomiting may occur but usually improves in a few minutes. Pain and other symptoms that continue, increase, or develop following an injury may mean an abdominal organ has been damaged.\n\nMany medications can cause abdominal pain. Some medications also cause side effects, such as constipation, that can make abdominal pain worse.\n\nReview the Emergencies and Check Your Symptoms sections to determine if and when you need to see a health professional.

You should go to your doctor and ask for something else.\n\nAlot of ibuprofen can really screw your stomach up.  I was told that I could take three pills, 3x a day, and I had severe stomach problems after that.\n\nAsk about something else.  \n\nAlso, start taking flax-seed oil.  It's a natural anti-inflammatory, healthy, good for your cholesterol, and helps you not hurt so much.\n\nPain specialists claim that if you just lose six pounds you'll feel alot better, so think about cutting back on the sweets.  They also claim that a hurting body is frequently a tired brain.  So make sure that you get adequate rest.  \n\nDrink lots of water.  \n\nGo to your doctor, tell him that nothing's really working.  I work in a hosptial, and I know you haven't exhausted the pain medicines.\n\nTry taking Alieve.  I don't have much relief with asprin, or tylenol, but Alieve helps.  Just don't take it every single day. \n\nAsk for something else.  You really need to be on a pain management program.  They can help you get over the pain, and find what drugs you need to be on to help your particular pain.  Different pain killers kill different pains.

See a doctor when you get a chance and see if there is anything that can be done. I suffered persistant stomach aches but no vomiting and my doctor gave me something called Aciphex for acid reflux...I didn't know that you could take medicines like that to help if you weren't vomiting or having heartburn, but you apparently can if you have what causes my stomach aches: Excessive stomach acid.\n\nIf the other suggestions here do not work, try taking an OTC acid blocker like the ones listed here: http://gi.org/patients/women/whatisgerd.asp You can buy generics cheap.\n\nI hope you find a cure for this and feel better soon!

Gastritis can be serious.  How was it diagnosed?  What did the doctor tell you?  The most important thing is to find the cause.  Sadly, it is too easy for many docs to just prescribe a drug to block the symptoms.  It can take real mental effort and hard work by the doctor to work with the patient to find the cause.  (Which is why most docs don't do it!)\n\nI would like to suggest a book by Sherry Rogers, M.D. called "No More Heartburn".  She discusses the many causes of stomach and digestive problems, how to identify the true causes and how to treat them.  I highly recommend this book.  You can order it at Amazon.com or through her publisher at 1-800-846-6687.\n\nBest wishes and good luck!

I'm not a doctor, you have something wrong healthwise. If you have not had a check up by an MD (medical doctor) you shoud get one urgently. Your body is trying to fight something off. If you still have your appendix, it could be getting to rupture (very serious). If your lower right abdomen is hard, that could be it. If you still have your tonsils, you probably neeed them removed.

I always tell people that i am an alternative medicinal therapist. I deal a lot with this problem, so let's see if we can't sort you out.\nIs the pain a burning sensation? If so you are making to much acid, do you have heartburn? again it's over acidity?\nDO NOT take anymore antacids they will make the problem worse and they can also start the problem off in the first place.\nDoes it only start when you eat fried or spicy foods, if so you may have an ulcer.\n\nDo you have a lot of gas, is your stomach tender to the touch?\nYou could have a peptic ulcer or gastritis.\nTreatment.Herbal teas: German chamomile-thistle-betony-\nTablets: ginseng-goldenseal-\nCider vinegar=2 teaspoons in glass of water 2 to 3 times daily.\nIf my treatment fails go to your GP he will send you to the hospital for tests.Contact me if you need any more advice e-mail alternative@medicine123.wanadoo.co.uk\n\nGloria J Jones (BSYA-SEN)

Stabbing pains are never a good sign. Check your symptoms on Web MD at http://www.webmd.com/diseases_and_conditions/symptom_checker.htm \nIt is a great website that will tell you based on your symptoms if you should call a doctor to make an appointment or seek medical attention right away. Please do this ASAP. Stomach pain can be very serious. Appendicitis, kidney infection, etc. Of course it could just be gas. (I took my friend to the emergency room one time, turned out she had gas LOL)

I had an appendicitis and signs that I had were...\n\nVomitting, and a really bad stomach ache that won't go away, it's even hard to sleep with it. \n\nIf you have these, I would definately go to the ER and get checked out!

Call your doctor ASAP. He/she should be aware of your temperature and the persistence of this pain. You need at the very least a complete work-up, including bloodwork and chest and maybe abdominal X-rays. Don't mess around It could be a million things, some minor or some very major.
