I sometimes get the side pains, sometimes in the back, hell- it moves all around. I believe its the colon spaszing(sp?) out and pressing on different nerves.

If it's your right side, just under your rib cage it may actually be your gall bladder.

Your right, under the ribcage is the gall bladder and the left side under the ribcage is where you stomach veers off. Anything lower is the all IBS territory.

You may want to see a doctor to be sure you don't have any trouble with the GB...
