What Causes Pain In The Middle Of The Lower Abdomen While Eating?

Hi, I am having pain in my mid-lower abdomen when eating. I had my gallbladder removed about 10 years ago, and my appendix 2 years ago, so I know it isn t either of those issues. I have a history of c-diff but I am not active as far as I know; going from constipation to loose stool pretty rapidly. Also having occasional bouts of food not fully digesting... it is very painful and I wonder just what level of pain to tolerate before either masking with pain relievers (I rarely if ever take them and really don t want to try and mask this) or seeing an emergency physician. It is very expensive on my insurance for ER visits, and we are just paying off other medical bills.
