That is so weird, Janet, I have never had syptoms come on as fast as this did, and I know I was not imagining it! I have too many drs who do not believe adhesions can cause trouble, except my gyn. And I have lost all female organs, I did call the GI dr, and I see him on Monday at 3 o'clock. I got a cancellation normally I have to wait months, and that is aggravating, I guess the drs here in cinti just do not understand. That was a scary night, my husband said I was white as a ghost, and it all passed as IU read a book. I hope yopu are feeling better now, I feel better than Tuesday night.
