<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->the area you indicate is typical area of refered pain with duodenal ulcers, usu the result of poor bile flow. Ive seen these problems and  will give pats a product called AF Betafood 5/meal which helps flush the biliary system. Also people with this problem should never eat lettuce since it clogs up the intestines where the bile gets reabsorbed. The symptom occurs because the muscles in the area get tight from blood being shunted from that area to the gall bladder. You can use moist heat to get the muscles some relief. But the underlying problem is the bile flow. Try getting some alka seltzer or similiar stuff (i use alka-max <a href="http://www.evitamins.com/product.asp?pid=2925" target="_blank">http://www.evitamins.com/product.asp?pid=2925</a> ) and taking that for a while to cool off the duodenum. The AF Betafood is usually sold only thru Doctors but Ive seen it online...http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Process-F-Betafood-Tablets/dp/B0006IIESQ<br /><br />Hope this helps. You probably think it just a muscle problem but its not.<br /><br />Ignore the answer I post on the thread cause i really cant give advice online like that. Thanks Oddball<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />thanks man, i&#39;ll try going to a drug store later on
