question: i have been experiencing abominal pains for 6-8 months now and normally pass them off, only recently have i started to get specific locations for the pain and its becoming quite severe, i have been doing a bit of research and there are a few different causes or diseases relating to the pain, my doctors have said could be to do with financial troubles, causing anxiety and stress. But since a lot fo these issues have been somewhat resolved cause less stress and anxiety. i have also been waking up with pretty intense pain in the same area (lower left abdomen) and now starting to think its something serious. i know i should go and get tests done but havent got the time unless severe due to work. any help would be greatly appreciated  Andre
