This sounds like a odd thing to say, but try labor breathing when you feel it and if that seem to ease the pain then it could be IBS or stress related. I suffer from it and that was one of the first things the DR. had me do. It really helps. You might feel silly and look silly but give it a try, just to see if it helps. Also try not to worry about it to much, the worring just seems to make things worse.


Hope you feel better soon.

I have IBS and YES the labour thing helps me too. I have had it my whole life and my stomach doesn't like animal fats, caffeine, or alcohol ...

Get a doc to check yourself out!

I don't think your symptons sound like IBS to me, but then I am no doctor and you have not been too specific about your symptons, so hard to tell, IBS cause extreme pain, the bowel gets tense and has spasms (sp_), not to mention bloating,and can happen at any time, and like Tamara said, certain foods and stress can set it off, its very unpredicatable and uncomfortable to live with, I doubt that is your problem, but only a health professional can tell you that, put your mind at ease Kay and go see the doctor, it maybe be something that can be fixed easily.,don't be stubborn like me and put up with it, hoping it will go away, and suffering ok.

The only reason I said anything about IBS, is when I was in my 20's it started almost like that. I just had a odd feeling in my stomach, tight like and couldn't even think about eating. Some foods just made me feel worse. So sense she didn't give to many details, I brought it up just as an idea. It so common in woman now days and if it caught early, it might not get as bad as mine has.

But then again, I did say it might be the stomach flu that my husband had also. There are so many things that can effect your stomach.

Thats why we need DR.'s

Oh too right Fox-gal, I wasn't berating you for mentioning it, it could be anything, stomachs are crazy things, and so many symptons are similar, that is why she should go to a Doctor, the sooner the better, not everyone with IBS suffers quite the same symptons anyhow, although similar, I have had it for over 15 yrs myself, and yes it is very common, and diet can play an important part in it, but she mentioned an acid type feeling, that why I wondered if gastric reflux might even be the cause, another very common disease.
