Just a thought: but there is an "entity" called "Splenic Flexure Syndrome" It is essentially BOWEL GAS which collects in the HIGHEST section of the large bowel (colon) the BEND which occurs just BELOW the spleen! This is the "catching" pain some people get after RUNNING! See Diagram between 2 and 3 Hope this helps! Dr Z
