Bad Stomach pain

Fir 7 years every now and again I get very bad pain right under my breast bone and the only way of relieving it is to make my self vomit or if it gets to painful I have to go into hospital for Morphine. Yet no-one can tell me whats wrong I have had all the tests and scans. Any one else like this ?

If vomiting relieves the pain, it sounds like pressure from acid and gas that probably wasn't there when they did the tests. Try taking an over-the-counter anti-acid pill the next time it happens. If it causes you to belch and relieves the pain that's the source. It can be brought on by certain foods or stress. If you find the source, don't just keep taking the anti-acid, try to find what's causing it and eliminate the cause.

I get a moderate pain in the same location from time to time... I would rate it as "very uncomfortable" sometimes to "Oooooh, feels like an internal organ might rupture".

Gas. I usually end up belching up a storm about 30minutes later. My wife loves it (sarcasm)

If its gas in the stomach, vomiting would relieve it directly. If its in the upper intestine, emptying the stomach would relieve pressure.

*Disclaimer: For me, its gas. The symptoms of my issue simply sound very much like your symptoms. Your underlying cause may be different. I'm not a doctor and am not claiming to diagnose you.

I agree with you on not attempting to diagnose medical problems on EHelp. In this case, if chrisron has been "into hospital for Morphine" and "had all the tests and scans" without relief, it sounds like the floor is open for further suggestions. Sometimes it's the simple stuff.

could be a reaction to a food that you have sometimes???????
