In response to "About 10:30 last night I developed moderate pain throughout my central abdomen and back." by ty97

I get something similar from time to time and I hate it. Quite painful. Very sharp pains in back and chest that force me to get up, walk around,

do anything to try and get rid of the pain. But my 'spasms of pain' come and go for sometimes as long as 2-3 hrs and mostly at night...mostly. No way I can go to sleep when this is happening.

I too had the gall bladder check but no stones. I take Aciphex every other day but usually after an event like this I try to avoid triggers such as chocolate, tomatoes, acidic juices because the day after my insides feel like they have been torched.

When I do get an attack, I have found that, when it begins, eating a banana helps to shorten the time in which I deal with the spasms of pain. May want to keep some handy.
