That sort of pain timing might well suggest an ulcer. 85% of these are linked with an abdominal bacterial infection called helicobacter pylori, (Google it.) She needs to see her GP who needs to arrange a 'Breath Test'. This is relatively straight forward and any moderately competent GP can perform this in the the surgery rather than referring her.

GP for more years than I care to remember



how much do you eat, you may be waiting too much
otherwise, you might be having a allergic reaction
or if you take a vitamin or something after you eat, that will make you stomach hurt

either way eat a dairy product and take some Tums, that should help



maybe you're pregnant and after you eat the baby moves inside you to go to your stomach and eat too.if you have kissed some boy lately it could be this



What are you eating? Are you eating well? Are you eating proper meals? What sort of pain is it?
Just goto your GP and be safe! and not sorry!



you could try a doctor... he is specialised in such stuff of course...
