What do you think this was?

[spilled_milk]

This is mostly a question because i am curious, not so much because i am panicking...I got out my panicking before [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img].


I'm just wondering what this was. Since I have such a high metabolism, I get hungry a lot. sometimes when i get hungry my stomach starts to hurt, but just a little. Last week, I think on wednesday, my stomach was starting to hurt a little, but i was really hungry. I had three more blocks left in school before lunch (blocks are 50 minutes each). As it went on it got worse and worse, until it was a steady ache. I thought that I was really hungry, so I ran to the pizza line and bought two slices of pizza and ate them really fast. My stomach just got worse, so I bought a bottle of water because I thought that I might have been dehydrated.


It slowly escalated untill it was a painful dull ache puncutated with random stabbing pains every few seconds. the pain got so bad that i was doubled up on the cafeteria floor (VERY embarrasing, lol) because i was dizzy, crying, and just then felt like i was gonna vomit (i think because of the pain). For some insane reason I didn't want to go to the nurse, so i went to my next class which happens to have a couch in the room so i got to lay on the couch until it went away at the end of class. It didn't hurt that much anymore, but when i pushed on my stomach it hurt and felt a little hard. the next day when i pushed on it it still hurt a little...like residual hurting.


I guess my question is, has anyone ever experienced anything like this? i'm wondering if it was just hunger and eating too fast, or if it was some type of stomach flu (one of my friends was out v*ing, and another was out with basically the same thing that happened to me, except the pain was less severe and she felt more sick). I'm just kinda curiouis. I would have posted this earlier, but the site was down [img]smileys/smilies_06.gif[/img]

In all honestly...It sounds like you had a huge gas bubble, or like you had to take a poop. I get that way, pain so bad in my intestines, and when I lay on my stomach and let a huge one rip I feel better. All that greasy food can give you major gas, and the cheese can back you up, I really think that is all it was. But hey, you didn't v* and that's a good thing!!

This may sound very weird, but when this happened, did you have pants on with a tight waist band? Were you wearing a tight belt? What you're describing has happened to me ALOT for two reasons: the one I just explained and the reason you explained.

I get pains like that in my stomach alot of the time, it is usually wind but sometimes its my IBS playing up.


Do you know if you have IBS?

I get pains like that for varying reasons. In addition to what everyone else has said, I will get stomach aches from being really hungry, and then when I do eat, it's like my stomach just attacks the food because I was so hungry. That kind of sounds like what happened to you. That's why after you had some time to digest, you felt better. As far as the residual pain when you pressed on it, it was probably due to you unconciously tightening your stomach muscles because of the pain. If you kept them tight for a while (which you probably did) just like any muscle that gets overworked, it will be sore the next day.

I had an intestinal bug on Saturday (no nausea or v* though). I had diarrhea all day, but during the night, I had the most godawful cramp in my stomach. I felt like dying. I laid down but couldn't sleep the whole night. The next day I was fine. But in your case, it didn't last too long, so it must have been just gas.

I had the same thing on Saturday. Severe stomach pain. I took a Pepto, and it seemed to help things. It could have been a gas bubble.
