I have had stomoach discomfort for 15 years. It starts with a small pain slightly above belly butten to my right. Within approx 30 minutes it feels like I have a hot coal in the same spot. If I can power through the pain, then it relapses about every 10 minutes. Eventually I have diaharea from satin himself. 2-3 trips to the john later I begin to fell better. This happens about every 3 days. Sometimes I am able to fend it off by eating Ice or advil. Drinking also dumds it. Sometimes I also have it for 3 days ina row and 3 days off. I have had a colonoscpy (spelled wrong) and they did not find anyhting. They just give me stomach relaxers and send me home. I have learned to deal with it over the years, but somedays it makes it hard to be in public. You learn every private john in town, and use the upstairs bathroom at friends house.
