What Causes Stomach Pain?
daughter has what we think are sensitive nerve endings in her stomach. Everything she eats gives her pain. She has been tested reflux. wheat allergies and lactose. All negative. This pain is now causing her to be very tired and uninterested in everday. This has been going on for years. Is there medication to help with the stomach pain since we have tried limiting the foods and types. or is there another possible answer to her pain?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
The most probable cause of pain in the absence of any finding for reflux, wheat allergy and Lactose intolerance are:
There can an inflammatory process going on in the abdomen as appendicitis or diverticulitis or lymph node problems.
Or there can be narrowing in the upper part of the intestines.
I would suggest you the following for your daughter:
CT scan of the abdomen
Enteroclysis , a sort of Barium studies.
I am sure the reason will be found, get investigated and treated accordingly.
