I would like to record some of the noises my upper abdomen has been making for the past couple of months and bring it to my doctor. is there some kind of device i can buy to stick on my abdomen overnight that can record sounds?

Wet? Or Dry?: A little microphone designed to put on an old-style telephone would work, or any small, flat mic you can buy online or at Radio Shack.Or-I have an idea: rent out a recording studio for 6 hours and let them mic you with Mid-Side Microphones direct into a Reverb, compresser,and a couple of modulation effects and get creative.Have one dry track(your bowels)and a wet track (your bowels on drugs)-fun!

Generally not useful: I think you can probably describe them. Sounds in the abdomen are pretty much limited to a few basic patterns and none are particularly diagnostic. Your other symptoms - pain, appetite, bowel patterns, etc are probably more useful.
