Particularly when I'm "C" and bloated that's exactly where I have my pain - which means about 99% of the time. My GI dr's nurse practitioner and my regular dr said that's the transverse colon and it spasms. It also swells, twists, whatever and pushes on the diaphragm/upper stomach/chest area. I reassure myself when the pain is there it's not my gallbladder, liver or appendix! I'll have several good days and then eat "something" and I don't know if it's what I ate today or 3 days ago - but, it's usually something that causes "C". I have a friend who has lots of gas and she has pain there constantly. Even though I don't have any answers, I hope this maybe reassured you it's "normal" What a word for IBS'ers! Blessings - Dorothy
