Q: abdominal pain bloating and missed 2 periods - not pregnant

I am really worried, I have missed 2 periods and not pregnant, I have bad abdominal pain and bloating and I have not been going to the toilet properly, I went to the hospital and they kept sending me home with just pain killers so on my 5th visit to them I demanded they do an x-ray which showed that my stomach was full nearly to my chest with food, I have been given laxitive medicine and suppostiories which I have been taking for 3 days. I have been to the toilet more than before but I still have abdominal pain, plus my chest feels like it is caving in (not to do with my heart as they checked it at the hospital). I feel as though I am never going to get better, has anyone got any ideas as to what is wrong with me cause I cant cope with this much longer and I don't think my doctor is taking me very seriously. Please help

Abdominal pain & bloating

I suffer real bad period pain & get bloaty every month. Doctors have given me heaps of different meds but some of them made me sick. The last couple of months I have noticed a big improvement with these hip support underpants that I got. They are supportive but also work by emitting thermal warmth so really relieve my tummy pain. you can read more at (edited to remove commercial link) Unlike hot water bottles they cant burn your skin which happened to me when I was in hospital once. I also changed my diet by drinking more water & eating heaps of celery before each period as it's a natural diuretic. I hope this helps you because I know how bad period pain can get.....
