Question : I have been having abdominal pain off and on for two weeks. It begins right under the sternum then down to the pelvis area and around my back. The pain is very intense. I have it after I eat and during the night when I am sleeping the pain will wake me up.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read carefully all your concerns and I understood your query.

You are reporting to have abdominal pain under the sternum that irradiates on back and pelvis area.
Your symptoms seems to be related with:
- stomach ulcer/acid reflux
- gallbladder/pancreatic issues
To my opinion you need to be evaluated with :
- Upper endoscopy
- abdominal ultrasound
- blood work
- urine analysis.
You are reporting that you have done MRI and X ray, please can you upload to me your medical reports. So I can give you a more accurate opinion.
Meantime I suggest to start PPI 's treatment like Prilosec OTC.

Wish you all the best!
