Severe Stomach Cramps - Help! Any ideas what I can take?

[Guest guest]

This started right after I ate last night and has been going on for

16 hours without respite and I am desperate to find some relief. I

ate a reasonable meal - some salmon and veggies - and was relaxing

watching a movie. Suddenly, my stomach started cramping badly.

Cramps are excruciating and last 30-60 seconds and come every couple

of minutes. As the cramps come again, they get worse and worse.

After some time, there will be a break and eventually last night I

thought at one point they were gone, but then they came back and

with a vengeance. After I had them about an hour, I vomited

undigested food. My bowels had been moving normally up to and

including yesterday but not since last night. I have tried the

strongest pain medication I can take - really strong ones give me

stomach pains so I am limited in that. The meds help somewhat and

allowed me to get some sleep. My husband has been standing by to

take me to ER since last night and suggests that my description of

the problem sounds like something fairly high up in my system is

kinked or folded stopping things moving, but that my bowels are not

blocked so I am not feeling lower rumblings or anything. The pain is

in my stomach and I feel my stomach knotting up and the cramps feel

really high up.

 

I am sure that if I get some relief, it will help the cramps relax

and things will get better quickly. Any ideas for what I can take to

alleviate this even for a while?

Hi, You need to treat the cause not the symptom. Nerve supply to

the stomach comes from the spine and you need balance and mobility

for the body to work correctly; applies to everything really.

I have an exercise sheet that will do this job for you, or anybody,

just email me at donmoody and ask, it's called

Exercises for long leg syndrome. If you are really suffering it would

be quicker to see an Osteopath or a Chiropractor, as an emergency and

then do the exercises.

Kind regards, Don Moody. nasalb0ne.
