What Causes Abdominal Pain?

My daughter was in urgent care last night for abdominal pain. She has had the pain for 3 days...can t sleep well with it, can t find a comfortable position standing, sitting or laying down. If she does find one, she can t move without discomfort. She had a ct scan done and the doctor said that it was probably menstrual related and sent her home. She is now having diarrhea (from the barium sulfite?) and is light headed. The pain is now in her back as well. Any thoughts? She has a doc appointment for Monday with her regular physician. Thanks! a

Hi.
Thanks for an elucidate history.
The inability to change the position it self is suggestive of a need for exploratory Laparoscopy to determine the cause and deal with it.
This can a perforated appendix or a lymph node mass or PID or Salpingitis and Mittelschmerz syndrome suggestive of ruptured ovarian follicle with lots of bleeding.
It is best to get a diagnosis and treatment accordingly .
I think, you must visit the ER and get the proper treatment done.
