Hi Ella,

I am glad that you found the PM Forum of MedHelp and took the time to post. Welcome. However I am very sorry to hear about your abdominal pain.

Have you seen your PCP? If not I would suggest that you make an appointment for a good clinical evaluation. If you have seen your PCP and he is at a loss o find a solution than I suggest you get a second opinion. An Internal Medicine Physicians may have some better answers for you.

Gastrointestinal issues can can the type of symptoms you describe. Is is related to foods or anything you consume? You might want to keep a chart or record of when the pain begins or ends, including what makes it better or worse.

Obviously a gastroenterologist are best at diagnosing GI problems. It may not be related to your GI Track but I think it is a good place to begin.

If the pain becomes severe do not hesitate to make a trip to your local ER Department. Abdominal pain cause come from some many sources, some of which can be serious.  

I wish you the very best and hope that you will keep in touch with us. We will watch for your updates.

Take Care,
~Tuck

Hello Ella. Welcome to the Forum.

My, you are too yound to be having these types of problems. With what you've desribed, it sounds like a digestive disorder but I'm no Doctor. Have you been to the Doctor for this? or talked with one of your parents? I feel that the best option for you would be to make an appt. if you've not done so.
Sorry that I couldn't offer you more. Please take care and goood luck in finding an answer.

My best,
