Where are you feeling the pain ?   I can ’ t stand up ! My stomach is killing me !   Can you put your hand where it hurts the most ?   It hurts smack in the middle of my gut !   Did this just come on suddenly ?   I felt OK until an hour or so ago , and then I just doubled over .   Have you exercised strenuously or played sports recently ?   No , and I don ’ t usually get a lot of stomachaches .   We need to get you to an emergency room to see what the problem is .   I think that that is the best way to figure out what is causing this . Thank you .
