ok, here goes:

pain is in the sort-of mid-back area, right side, near the end of my ribcage.

it starts out tolerable, and gradually gets worse, until i eat something. started yesterday, around noon and went away after eating dinner. flared up again this morning, and went away after a bagel. never experienced this before.

no poo or pee problems. nothing out of the ordinary, except this pain. actually, i've been exceptionally thirsty these past few days, and have been downing a lot of water.

only thing i could come up with was kidney stones, but symptoms don't seem consistent with them. i don't really know what else to check.

i was also thinking it might be some weird side-stitch anomaly...?

Dustin:

It's time to get thee to a doctor. Your symptoms could be do to problems in your stomach, your bowels, less likely in your muscles or bones. Getting relief after eating is strongly suggestive of stomach as the source. Get a medical evaluation to root out the cause and get appropriate treatment.

Thanks,
