Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have found new clues to how the brain and the stomach interact with emotions to cause overeating and obesity. By looking at how the human brain responds to "fullness" messages sent to the brain by an implanted device that stimulates the stomach, the scientists have identified brain circuits that motivate the desire to overeat in the obese -- the same circuits that cause addicted individuals to crave drugs. The scientists have also verified that these circuits play a critical role in eating behaviors linked to soothing negative emotions. The study appears in the October 17, 2006 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, published online in PNAS Early Edition the week of October 2.\n\nThis study opens new territory in understanding how the body and brain connect to each other, and how this connection is tied to obesity," said lead author Gene-Jack Wang of Brookhaven Lab's Center for Translational Neuroimaging. "We were able to simulate the process that takes place when the stomach is full, and for the first time we could see the pathway from the stomach to the brain that turns 'off' the brain's desire to continue eating."

Stomachaches usually come with nausea, cramps (I'm assuming menstrual cramps) occur in the lower abdominal area and more intensely. Stomachaches are caused mostly by an unhappy tummy, cramps are caused by overexertion. If you have been eating questionable things like junk foods or improperly cooked foods or no foods at all and you begin to experience pain and nausea, you have a stomachache. If you have been exercising or you are going through your period, you have cramps. Prevent cramps by stretching before exercise and consuming foods high in potassium and low in sodium, like bananas.

if your under stress it could be a stomach knot, yes that's a real thing, but it more so feels like your stomach is really tight inside and a bit crampy. You might just have a 24 hour stomach bug. Take the day off of school hang out and watch movies, you'll feel better soon :) or have your parents make you a doctors appointment sounds to me though you just need a day to hang out and get some rest.

If you're climaxing, and it's intense, you may be experienceing muscle aches, from the contractions throughout your body, including the stomach muscles. If, however, you are experiencing a stomach ache, as you do sometimes after you eat too much or eat something bad, your best bet is to go to the doctor, hun...no joke. Doesn't sound like something serious, but better to find out now and put your mind at ease.

Yes, gallbladder pain can radiate.  It can feel like back pain or even stomach cramps, and can make you feel short of breath (called Murphy's sign).  And if you get a colon cleanse with an inflammed/infected gallbladder, like the first guy said, it could rupture and you may die a slow and horrible death of peritonitis.  Have you had an ultrasound of the actual gallbladder?  This can bother you even when you are not eating, and intermittant pain can be a sign of passing the gall stones.  I have done this a few times and it was the worst pain I ever felt in my life, even worse than child birth.  There are the five F's risk factors of gallbladder disease:  Female, Fat, Fertile, Family history, and over Forty.  If you have more than three, you should get rechecked, especailly if you have had a baby recently (that IS IF you are a female).

Some symptoms would be belching and gas, bloated feeling, nausea/vomiting, pain in the upper right quadrant of your abdomen, pain in your back (between shoulder blades), tenderness when pressing your abdomen (rebound), and generally feeling like crap especially after a large or fatty meal.

Appendicitis can cause a variety of symptoms that may change over time. The most common early symptom is an aching pain around your navel that often shifts later to your lower right abdomen. As the inflammation in your appendix spreads to nearby tissues, especially the inner lining (peritoneum) of your abdomen, the pain may become sharper and more severe.\n\nEventually, the pain tends to settle in your lower right abdomen ¾ near your appendix at what's known as McBurney point. This point is about halfway between your navel and the top of your right pelvic bone. But the location of your pain may vary, depending on your age and the position of your appendix. Young children, especially, may have appendicitis pain in different places.\n\nIf you apply gentle pressure to the area that hurts, it will feel tender. As you release the pressure, especially if you do it suddenly, appendicitis pain often will feel worse (rebound tenderness). It will also tend to get worse if you cough, walk or make other jarring movements. This is particularly true if the inflamed appendix is touching the peritoneum — the silk-like membrane that lines the inner abdominal wall and enfolds the intestines. The pain may lessen somewhat if you lie on your side and pull your knees up toward your chest.\n\nIn addition to pain, you may have one or more of the following signs and symptoms:\n\nNausea and sometimes vomiting \nLoss of appetite \nA low-grade fever that starts after other signs and symptoms appear \nConstipation \nAn inability to pass gas \nDiarrhea \nAbdominal swelling

I have the same "problem". It is just the way your body fat is distributed around your abdomen area. Not a big deal, unless it is painful. :o)

If you've been trying your best to keep sugar and snacks at a minimum, even the smallest snack eaten after a little while of eating properly can cause you some discomfort. Your body almost "forgets" how to properly digest fats, sugars, starches and salts and gets very "upset", so to speak, when it must all of a sudden break these things down.

I am in the same situation right now and I've found it helps to only eat when I am actually hungry....like when my stomach hurts and/ or growls!  LOL  It doesn't even matter so much WHAT you eat, if you eat more than you burn it WILL turn to fat!  There's just no way around that fact. \n\nso.....  sit ups, walking, more sit ups, try to eat healthier (or reduce your portion sizes at least), more sit ups, more walking, more sit ups.   It will be hard work, but you can do it!!  Good luck!

Someone with a small stomach may notice more easily when it starts to get empty. I prefer to eat a small amount throughout the day & to avoid discomfort. I don't like nor am really able to "pig out" & eat anymore than is comfortable.  The more I eat out of what is normal for me, the more I am likely to experience pain when the stomach starts to feel empty. I am naturally thin, as is my family. Don't know if there is any significance to size or if a large persom may experience the same. I too am somewhat lactose intolerant & have been tested for numerous ailments to no avail.

The are fatty bits on the side of the waist. They are not noticable in thin people when standing erect, but you can feel them when you are sitting.. Try pinching your waist when you are sitting and you will grab a bit of flesh, they are the love handles.\nPeople have already told you why they are called that!!!

You may have a problem here. Check out Webmd.com. Also if you are doing the Atkins diet and are not having any carbs at all you can experience these pains (happened to me during my walking routine)
