Abdominal and digestive issues

I have been having issues with my abdominal areas. Primarily with my stomach for about two years now. I have seen a number of doctors for my concerns and they simply have no answers for me except IBS. I beleive I dony have IBS. My symptoms are Immediate pain some time sharp and sometimes dull when I eat pretty much anything just below the rib cage dirrectly in the middle where I beleive the esophigus dumps into the stomach. Also I have some pain in what feels like the bottom of my stomach just above the belly button and somtimes on either sides. It seems to me as if my stomach and my intestines and colon are irritated. Also recently my right kidney seems to be hurting as well and sometimes my left one. I have taken prilosec a couple of times and it doesent seem to help. My father haws a history of stomach issues and kidney issues. I am wondering if I may have Cileac disease? I also have tingling in my abodomen area as well as my kidney area at times. I just cant pinpoint what casues it. I hope you have some suggestions that may help and guide me to a solution.

I just wanted to say that mammo has given you the best advice. You need a complete workup from a gastroenterologist and maybe even a nuerologist (for the tingling - might not be related to the other issues).  Good luck and hope to hear you get an answer soon.

I agree, this sounds nothing like IBS.  Have you seen a Gastroenterologist regarding your symptoms?  We could sit and guess all day, but getting an evaluation from a GI doc is the best route to go.  They will get right to the problem and you will get some relief.  Take care.
