flutter sharp pain- am i creating this?

okay- i realize that i have posted a lot in the past few days and i am sorry if i am overusing this resource- but i feel like something new happens every day, and i can never explain it to myself. all day today i have had a fluter- like a baby kicking or a twitch in the eye, but in my left side- sort of right below my ribs. it is getting more and more active and then i got a sharp pain in that exact spot. what is happening? am i making this all up in my head? my whole stomach is starting to hurt as i write this. i felt a lot better earlier today. my daughter was sick though, so maybe i was just focusing on her. i dont know what to think. part of me thinks that i am so worried that i am making things happen, but these pains and weird flutters are not able to be ignored. i tried searching to see what a flutter could be, but nothing. i just dont feel good.

As far as I know I didn't have any side effects.  I took it for about a year.  I just deal with them but I am on a painkiller for other pain and it seems to help.

Hi , I have been having the same symptoms since 2001.  The only answers a Dr. came up with is a Spastic Colon.  I did take ant-spasmoidic meds.  That seemed to help.  I had my cyst removed along with the ovary and tube but the spasm has continued.  I know it feels like you are being kicked but I know I am not pregnant.  The medicine I first tried was Bentyl.  Good Luck

thanks ladies. i was beginning to think that i was completely losing it. yes, i too know that i am not pregnant, and feel just like i am. i guess it is like something is growing inside of me though- just not something as lovely as a baby- ironic. the medicine that you were on for this twitch- which i must say is soooo annoying- any side effects? well, hope you are all feeling well today. talk to you soon- becca
