That's funny... my wife and I have had this for about 4-6 weeks now. Just today my wife went to the Doc about it - both of us have to give a stool (poo) sample because it looks like it's an infection - salmonella, E-coli or some other bug.
You weren't at a barbeque at the Royal Victoria Country Park on 8th July were you? (knew I should never have eaten that chicken...)
Get to the Doc's and get yourself checked out - if you've got what we've got, it won't go away on its own!
Must dash now.... nature calls!!!!

I don't want to frighten you but appendicitis starts in the centre of the belly. You may have a grumbling appendix, so go and see the doctor. You may be given a course of antibiotics, and it will get better. On the other hand it might just be IBS or a tummy bug. See the doctor though in case it gets worse.

what you have explained seem vague, but it looks like it is a kind of infection in your reproductive system. You have to see your Doctor for a proper assessment and treatment. It is possible that the pain comes because of stress in your life. Proper assessment will assist you a great deal.
See your Doctor, good luck.

Sound like IBS or irritable bowel syndrome, or H. pylori. IBS has meds, H. pylori has them also they're antibiotics you have to take for 14 days. Your doctor can check for this with a simple blood test, but they don't like to because it's too easy, and you're cured too fast.
You need to get it checked out.

Of course you should go see your doctor. He is much better qualified than most of us on this site. He can also ask you much more detailed questions and give you an examination if he feels it necessary or take blood tests etc.

it really is worth going to the doctor because no one here could really help you, everybody will have there own ideas but only a doctor can examine you and check for infection or strains or anything

Would definately go to the doctor as I had similar symptoms about a year ago and was told it could be a grumbling appendix.

It would be best to go to the docs if you have had it 2 weeks. No-one on here can say what it is you need a docs advice.

I strongly advise you to see your doctor.While this could be something relatively minor like an ulcer or perhaps I.B.S.(which I suffer from) something more serious especially if any blood is being passed.Best bet is to have it checked out just in case.
