Abdominal Migraines

[Branman115]

If you can't figure out the above title, that's what I was "diagnosed" with. I frequently get pains in my stomach. It's not like a nauseous feeling, more of a cramping pain. I occasionally get a headache. Finally, after about 2 years of me bearing with this, my mom took me to the doctor, and this is exactly what the doctor "diagnosed" me with. Obviously it's a true illness, I looked it up on Wikipedia. :P So, have you ever heard of this? It's at least good to know a name for what I feel, and, with the use of plain Advil, I can treat it. Strange, right?

Strange story, good to know you found out what it is!
Weird name though... Abdominal headaches basicly? /:

That is weird... and it sounds like it really sucks. :(

Are you/your doctor sure there isn't anything causing it? I used to get terrible headaches all the time, Advil was my best friend, but I found out that it was things like artificial sweeteners in gums and diet sodas that were causing it, I also found out that I was sensitive to almonds because they would trigger my migraines.

Actually, yes. She gave me a paper of possible triggers. My worst trigger is just stress or overexcitement. Besides that, it's iffy. Anyway, so glad someone else has at least something in common with me! :D

Interestingly enough, I have a nigh identical problem.
