Hi everyone! So yesterday was a stressful day but I went to bed feeling good and wasn't stressed anymore. I woke up in the middle of the night with severe stomach pain. I went to the bathroom and had a little bm. I then laid on the floor shaking, sweating, and in severe pain. After about 30-45 mins the pain was manageable and I was no longer sweating. I went back to sleep and was freezing cold and woke up this morning feeling fine. Has anyone had this happen to you? It's the weirdest thing but I'm scared it's going to happen again. Is it my UC flaring from the stressful day? Thanks for the feedback. I was diagnosed with UC about a year ago and have been in remission for almost a year. I take lialda.

I don't know if I had a fever or not. I don't think it was something I ate because it didn't last long. Hopefully tonight is better!

I had this a few month ago, even fainted because of pain,but the next day was feeling ok. went to the hospital everything came back normal - not sure what it was

whatever it is is not clear. flares come and go over weeks not hours.

if you are flaring this could have been a spike in symptoms. short of running out for a scope, you are stuck with wait and see

good luck

That sounds like typical food poisoning. Doesn't last too long but it's miserable while it's happening. Sweating and chills, I always need to lay on a cold tile floor. It happened to me with oysters not too long ago. Usually all those symptoms are precursors to vomiting. UC nausea is something else, happens when you're flaring and you have been for along time with no relief. At my worst, that nausea has come on for me when I was on the toilet going and the cramps and pain got so intense it caused nausea.. sounds like food poisoning. Sorry it happened to you. never fun, but better than a flare up!!!
