Sounds definitely like anxiety, anxiety causes tense muscles without you even realising it.
Found this which may help you abit, I also have problems with my stomach even when my anxiety isn't bad.
Stomach Tension – Anxiety also puts a great deal of pressure on the stomach muscles, and these in turn put pressure on the stomach. Any stomach pressure has the potential to change the way that your stomach feels during periods of stress.
Adrenaline Body Changes – Adrenaline and stress change hormone levels and digestion. It's likely that, when your body is responding with the fight/flight system, it's taking something away from the gut that it needs to function properly and causes a feeling of malaise.

Ye I get so bad and tense all the time with mine bt suffer headaches too from all the tensing. And iv found I pick my lips when I'm anxious don't know if anyone else does this too but that's apparently quite common for anxiety sufferers.

If its gas.....I know this will sound weird....but it works. Lay down on your back and bring your knees up to your chest. You will eventually pass gas and will start to feel better. This is what they do for gassy babies too.....kind of nasty but it works.
Feel better.
