Upper Addominal cramps

I have been having these hellacious cramps right under my ribcage for a few weeks. Sometimes they are on the right, sometimes on the left. It seems to depend on how I move at first but then no matter what I do, even lying flat on the floor for a while, they won't go away. They will go away for a few minutes and come back even though I haven't moved at all. I can't feel a knot or anything like you feel in a leg cramp. Everything I have read talks about cramping on one side or lower abdominal cramping or pregnancy cramping. None of that relates to me. I have no bowel issues at all, regular as the sun coming up every day. I do not have female parts anymore because I had a complete hysterectomy in 2001. Has anyone else had this kind of cramping? It seems to be just random which side it hurts on or how long they last or how often they come. The pain is the kind that takes your breath away and I've got a high tolerance for pain. Any ideas?

do you get the pain in your back?,,do you notice it after meals?,,,i dont think its cramps,more like organ pain,such as gullbladder (gallbladder) or pancreas possibly...
i am a man,and i get the same basic thing,,,almost exact what you say,,but i get the pain radiating into my back with it.
personaly ive had dozens of tests ran on everything from heart to gullbladder (gallbladder),pancreas,and everything comes back ok,,,so on that note there are two other possibilitys you should concider if the gullbladder (gallbladder) is ok,,,
...1...esophigeal spasms..
...2...angina
these two thing will give you the exact same pain...please read up on the two,,if everything checks out of,and have them concidered.
