which part of your tummy? I get pains around my bladder region i guess it is, i'm not med student lol.

So ye, the pain is intense and its a 'hold your breath till it goes away' kinda pain. I don't know if it is the same as you but I have been having it now for years and I'm still fine -- i think :p:

does it happen when you breath in?
I had something like this, some kind of mild stomach ulser, can't remember what its called.
the doctor prescribed me some 'proton pump inhibitors' (reduce stomach acid production), which sorted the problem in a few days.

The symptoms I had were:

Sharp pain, feels alot like hunger
Temporarily remedied by eating/antacids
Tender to touch (the doc pressed down at various points over my stomach and when he hit the spot is was pretty painful)

Not saying it is this, but its worth a look into.
