colon spasms

I have been having uncomfortable spasms at the top of my colon toward center of my chest.  I just had a colonoscopy and an endoscopy.  I have a small hiatal hernia and reflux.  I have had a sonogram and a cat scan.  No explaination for spasms.  It isn't constant and it goes away for a few days.  It comes back, feeling like something is stuck in colon and ist trying to push through.  It isn't painful just very uncomfortable.  It is at top of my rib cage on right side toward center.  Gasto Doctor said no ulcer does not know what is wrong.  Has anyone experienced this?

If you are constipated or gassy, treating those problems may help the spasms.

I would recommend asking your doctor about hyoscyamine.  Have you been feeling constipated or gassy?

No, I am waiting for biopsy results from edoscopy.  I am sure they will find nothing.  I still am uncomfortable.  It starts at about 3pm and continues for a few hours.  I sleep well and wake up with out it.  It feels like a clog trying to get pushed through, but its stuck.  Thanks for your reply.
