After 1.5 yrs 5 Doctors I was determined to find an answer. 2 Gastro said ibs. Internist said pretty much the same. Gyno takes me seriously. Thorough exam and internal sonogram to check for uterine or ovarian cancer. Both can cause similar symptoms. Everything checked out. I have pain stomach uproar and lower pain daily. Went to my neurologist to review neck and lower back issues. We start talking about how sick I’ve been and I still can’t get a serious diagnosis or relief. He looked at me and said I know what you have “abdominal migraine” and hands me a sample box. He took one out put it under my tongue 15-20 minutes later no pain. That was 12 days ago. I’m feeling quite normal energetic, happy. Doctor said it isn’t that uncommon and he treats it quite often. I am beyond grateful! But of course the meds aren’t covered by Medicare so figure 2k a month! Ouch

@grace29 - what was the name of the medication your neurologist finally gave you for “abdominal migraine”? I’ve had the same problem you have had, for several years and scans have shown nothing.
