Question

[Guest guest]

I had this weird thing happen a couple of weeks ago and was wondering

if any body else had this kind of experience. I was just sitting in

bed watchin a movie and all of the sudden I had this extreme intestinal

spasm. It started from right below by sternum and traversed my entire

belly all the way to my rectum. Yup all the way. It hurt like the

devil and lasted about 30 minutes. I couldn't move, all I could do is

lay flat until it subsided. It has left me rather sore ever since.

Especially after I eat. I have also had more nausea of late and have

started to take reglan and zofran again. anybody have any thoughts on

this?

I hope everybody is having a wonderful morning and are feeling as well

as possible.

Thanks,

Hi Chrissy: I haven't had it happen in exactly that way but I have

had intestinal/abdominal spasm when straining on the er, toilet.

Mine feels like a charley horse right under mid sternum area. Hurts

like the dickens and then it just goes away. I've always just

assumed it was the " straining " and sort of blew it off or should I

say chalked it up to just one more ghastly thing we have to

experience with this illness.

The thing that's freaking me about your case though (and forgive me

if my memory is NOT serving me correctly) is that you had a TP/ICT

didn't you? Why would you still be getting nausea and pain, etc.?

If that IS the case (TP/ICT) then I'm just freaked out over the fact

that the body somehow lived with the illness for so many years and

is sort of just " used to it. " Sort of like the phantom limb thing

that happens to people that have amputation??

Hope you get to feeling better soon..you've been thru so much.

Enough already!!
