Last weekend, I was in bed on Friday night and started to get the worst abdominal pains I have ever had. Never having a blockage before, I wasn't sure what was causing it, but after a few hours, I realized it must be a blockage. After some time, I raised myself off the bed and felt a pop, and my bag filled in 2 seconds flat. I rushed to the toilet, and after emptying it, it filled again in rapid time. This happened about another 2 times before it slowed down, and the pain started to diminish. After analyzing the situation, I remembered I had made a curry with Cardamom Seed in it. I put a total of 6 in the curry but could only account for 5 of them when eating it. So let me warn you, never use whole Cardamom Seed, crush them first.
