Abdominal pain

Hi all Im 31 and for the last 10 years or so I have had really bad mid/upper abdominal pain which is only apparent when I press my stomach or if I'm holding/carrying something that's pressing against it. I've been to the doctors a few times and they don't seem bothered at all - I've been given countless months of omeprazole but it doesn't fix the problem. I must say I do also have IBS (not sure if this shows symptoms in upper abdomen) has anyone else experienced this? I get so worried thinking about it. I notice that it can be worse after things such as a night of drinking alcohol which makes me think it is gastritis related but I don't know why it's sore to press all the time ☹️

I get this sometimes if I wear high-waisted jeans that are too tight... Confused

If you've had it for 10 years with no change/
increase, I doubt it's anything too serious. Annoying that the doctors won't follow up fully though.

You should get your gall bladder checked.
