Hi, I just commented to turner1970 today. My episodes seem to come every 5 months. Read my long comment and see if we are alike. I do plan on seeing a gast. And urologist. The last episode I remember eating a funnel cake not long I started for feel a mild discomfort in my stomach and rectum. Then when I got back to the camp my stomach hurt a little more, I had told my husband that severe pain is going to happen tonight and we will be in the ER, sure enough midnight comes and I'm up out the bed I feel the pain in my lower abdomen coming I get in tub then the faint feeling comes and I'm off to the ER just knowing that I'm going to faint and something is rupturing inside me. I do try to use the bathroom before going to ER but I can not go until about an hr after pain. I have also never commented before. I have also never seen so many post like or similar to my situation.
Omg!! I can not believe I found ur story! I have the same exact problem! I have never seen a comment that describe me. I am 30 yr old female from Louisiana. I had this episode happen about 5 times since dec. 2011, 3 times went to ER. I went to the. ER dec. 2011, May 2012, October 2013, notice it is 5 months apart. This happens to me only at night, about an hr or two after I eat. The abdominal pain is so severe every time I go to the ER they ask me if I'm any hallucinates or any type of drug over and over I finally said run any test u want to, they sure did test me for drugs and when they seen I was not on drugs their attitude changed but I know they get a lot of patients that overdose, but dang the pain makes me squirm and and I can not think straight. I'm also thinking food allergy! My symptoms, this is pretty much how it starts, mild abdominal pain and a feeling in my rectum, ears itch bad I think I feel swelling in my ear the first episode I first heard a buzzing in my ear then the severe abdominal pain, hands a feet itch, feel faint, then the severe pain in my lower left adominal then I feel pain left and center lower abdomen right above pelvis. When I get this pain immedialty I can not urinate or have a bowel movement the pain last about 2hrs. After the pain I urniate couple of times, have a bowl movement, get constipated then have diarrhea for couple of days. ( pain level 10, when I told the nurse that, the past 2 times I was in Mississippi she said, "you are not just here for drugs u are really hurting bc she will have patients that say real high number that's not on the chart and they are just there to get their fix. but really in my mind the pain level is off the charts!... I also get aggravated and can not think maybe bc of pain, feel hot and cold flushes, throat itches, first episode I had a rash on my stomach (small red dots), between my legs itched, past episode chest hurt and lump in my throat may be anxiety bc now I fear this severe pain, feel like I'm going to pass out feel dizzy I just feel like I'm going to pass out and die and not make it to the hospital in time. To me I feel like my body is swelling and my colon, or small int. something in my lower stomach feels like it swells. The past two times to the ER I did notice small red dots around my hair line by my forehead that was there couple of days after. The first time I had rash on my belly. This can not be gas pains! The first time they gave me shot said I was allergic to something, maybe laundry det. Nah, I don't believe that! Second trip to ER saline flush, catheder my bladder was full , pain med., ct scan showed nothing the tech did say my uretha looked inflammed but he wasn't suppose to say that bc the dr did not say that when he looked at scan, and white blood cell count high but not high enough for worries the nurse said a person from a car wreck can have triple the number of elevated WBC. The past time Benadryl and pain med. shot my WBC was elevated I had an UTI that i had the month before that didn't go away. I know this is long and may not make sense! Can you or someone give me any advice. Thanks!
i had this episode 2 days ago ans same symptoms so i just wanted to know is this a life threatening disease? pls. tell this is for everyone.
I wish that soon we have a name and cure for it. i am 32 year male and i experienced this episode last night for very first time, after few alcoholic drinks i had my dinner and laid down on bad but after some time i feel some cramps in my abdomen and urge to go to bathroom for no 2, i set on toilet sheet and started feeling so much weak and my heart was beating extraordinary i though this is then end but suddenly after bowel moment i started cold sweat most on my forehead and i was completely helpless and couldn't even move but after some time i managed to reach my bed somehow and laid down after sometime i feel recovered but seriously i though i having a heart attack as i was alone at home and was planning to go to doctor for complete check up, once i read so many post i feel i am not alone but really tense that these episodes keeps repeating and i travel a lot for work over night in flight, bus or train. i am really freaking out for thinking my next episode.

OMG I've never done anything like this before but after reading your story I had to respond. The EXACT same thing happened to me last night but I was by myself so I just kept praying I would be okay even though I was convinced I was going to dye. The same thing happens to me about ever 6 months and I don't know why? I would love to know what causes this because I'm scared to eat anything in fear it will happen again :-(
