    I've had mild intestinal/abdominal pain for the past couple days, and I'm trying to see what might cause that.

    IMO, WebMD sucks at diagnosing crap.

    What's a good one to go to?

    Based on what you've said about your diet, I would diagnose you with mild colitis (sp?) (something I diagnosed myself with once.)

    Taking a spoon of fiber powder (in whatever drink you want) for about a week or two would clear that up. Or it did for me.

    Are you sidelining as House? Only he could come up with a diagnosis so quick and with such little information.

    Too much sidelining as a competitive eater.

    Lol. Nope. And the odd part is oneside is experiencing bowel like discomfort while the other side just has been mildly sore in a different way for two days straight.

    With the help of Web MD, I was recently self diagnosed as a sex addict.

    Makayla has been complaining of stomach pain for the last 24 hours. Sounds like you two are up to some shenanigans. ;)

    OK, I just also noticed that my abdomen on my left side is sore to the touch, where the weird chronic pain was.

    Which side is the appendix on? Honestly, I don't recall. Still, if that's the issue, that's not something to mess around with. You should check it out with a doctor, man.

    That's not very reassuring.
