What Causes Stabbing Pain In Stomach?

I woke up this morning and it felt like I was being stabbed in my stomach. It is now 10 hours later and there is no relief. I ve taken antacids there is no burps or farts. It is somewhat painful to take a deep breath and I m occasionally nauseated. Will it ever end?!

Hi.
This is utterly difficult to understand why the patient is still at home since you are suffering for 10 hours ans you say you have not consulted in ER or a Doctor.

The probable reason can be either in the abdomen like intestinal obstruction or lymph node enlargement of a problem in the gall bladder or liver.
Another possibility is that you have developed some problem in the pleura - the covering of the lungs as you are giving history of pain increase on deep breathing .

Get a clinical examination and investigations to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
