Non descript somach pain

Never had any major health issues or concerns... [More] until now. I have never really ever been sick at all. No hospitalizations for anything. I began having unusally sever non descript stomach pain in my lower abdominal area. At onset the pain is so intense that I can't move or speak I just stay as still as possible and I began to sweat down my back. It is really scary for me and my family. The pain usually lasts from 5-20 mins and after my stomach is sore and I feel a tired and worn out, I have never sought medical treatment because it seems to be over just as soon as it starts. My husband thought that I was exagerating about the intensity of the pain until he was home the other day and saw exactly what happens during that onset of pain and how I still felt the aftereffects six hours later. I have never attempted to seek medical diagnosis dut to the quickness of the entire episode. The intense pain only lasts 5-20 mins, by the time I get to an er center and get signed in, the pain is gone. I know I would only be given a muscle relaxer and sent home and that would really make me angry. I don't want to be medicated I want to be fixed from the problem.

Is the pain on the right side under your right ribs and radiating up and into your back, it could be a Gall Bladder attack, I got this recently and went online and got details if it comes on after eating and what you eat, no milk, no eggs, there is a list of foods that you can and cannot eat, the pain is severe so bad if you did go to the ER as a lot of people do they give you MorphineI read that when it came on make a "tea " an infusion in a cup of Flax seeds and it did help you can eat beets and cucumber aswell to help,I have been doing the Natural route as I dont want Surgey, if you put in Gall Bladder into the Search Engine  you will see why.it does sound like it some meds will trigger it also check what you are taking.

Is there anything you can identify as the trigger? Does it happen a certain time after going to the restroom? or eating or drinking something? Or are you moving a certain way? Is there anything that links the episodes together? Do you ever vomit or have to run to the restroom to urinate or have diahrea?

Anything like that might help come up with some ideas. Anyway though, I'd definitely recommend that you go see a general practitioner or family doctor, let him know what's happening and see what tests he'd run to get the ball rolling. Anytime you have any kind of severe pain like that, it's worth a trip to a doctor.
