I have sharp pains after eating?

Anonymous
I would ideally like to ask a doctor this but I am at university now and the on campus health center is... less than stellar.

I also researched on the internet and found an online ask-a-doctor thing but they all require payment...that I don't have.

So. GAG, you're my last hope - at least until Christmas break.

I have been experiencing sharp pains after eating meals.

They occur within 0-15 minutes after eating and I can feel them both in my upper left rib cage area directly beneath my breast, and in my right hip/pelvic area.

They then last for 30 minutes on average during which time I cannot stand upright because it hurts.

They also do not occur after every meal. I assumed perhaps it had to do with *what* I was eating or perhaps eating too much, but it seems that they happen without warning no matter what I eat or how much of it I eat.

They occur probably three times a week (not necessarily all on the same day). They also are random as to which meal it happens.

It also happens during the meal. I can eat three bites just fine but a fourth causes these sharp pains. It feels almost like short stabbing pulses that continue for 30ish minutes.

Any ideas?
