Radiating pain from middle of back to under front left ribs and stomach, seems to be associated with being constipated (it acts up more) ?

Constipation: … can cause abdominal pain in a multitude of locations. Initially, I would recommend that you try to increase fibre in your diet, and perhaps take fiber supplements such as Metamucil daily, in in addition to drinking more liquids. If this helps the pain, great. If it doesn't, then I would see your doctor for a more thorough evaluation. Good luck.
