Alarm signs to check: Recurrent abdominal discomfort is first addressed by accompanying signs/symptoms that may localize the organ involved: vaginal discharge or bleeding, alteration in periods, pregnancy risk? Fever, nausea, vomiting, altered stool pattern, blood w/ stool, tenderness, distension? Painful urination, blood in urine? Recent trauma, herniations? Age? Risks? If a LOT of pain as described, GET checked now!

Nonspecific : Your symptoms don't point towards a single diagnosis. There are many possibilities, with the likely scenario not being dangerous. Since the symptoms are bad enough, make an appointment with your primary care provider ASAP. If you can stay hydrated and are not running fevers, probably ok to wait until Monday. If not, head to urgent care or ER. Hope this helps!
