Answers:

Talk to a family member or even the parent of a friend. Tell them all about it, and that you want to find a different doctor that will listen to you. As I'm sure you know, as a minor you have to have authorization from a parent or guardian to get treatment. If your legal guardian won't help you find another doctor, contact your state's social services or child protective services division and see if they can help. Good luck. Try not to be scared...sometimes stress can cause major gas pains and noise in the abdomen. If you had a CT of your head and it was negative, that's great. I still think you need to either sit down with your doctors and MAKE THEM LISTEN TO YOU, or find a new doctor. Again, try to relax...it very well could all be stress....sometimes we don't even realize we are stressed! Is everything OK at school? With friends or girlfriend? At 16 there can be lots of stressing events and situations in your life. If you can identify any, just ask yourself "Is this REALLY worth getting upset about???" Save the stress and emotions for the big stuff that really matters. I hope all turns out well and you start feeling better and find a doctor who will listen to you better.
