My stomach has been bothering me for about a year now. What should I do?

I have had stool samples, urine samples, blood work, and breath tests. They can't find anything wrong with me. I can't eat certain foods or I'm lying on the couch in too much pain to really move. I'm a teenager and my parents don't think too much about it but I know there is something wrong with me. Please give me some advice. I'll really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Can you please elaborate what kind of foods you are unable to eat.

    And yes, it is really hard for us when our parents think "it's just a stomach bug everything will become fine on its own".

      I can't eat cucumbers, macaroni, cheese balls, and really and sort of junk food.

    Have you asked your doctor about IBS which can cause the symptoms you are having?  Do you have any change of bowel habit?

    Some one also gave a note that it could be IBS. I also feel the same. you may see its symtoms on web site. Though it is a benign problem yet uncomfortable.

      Around my belly button at first and then all over. When I walk, if I can, I have to double over but it still hurts

      Are you a doctor? If you are somewhere around there or working in medical fields then go right ahead and prescribe me some medicine.
