I don't even know how to explain this.
Lately, just out of the blue, at the oddest times. I'll go to sit up and get a massive charley-horse, but it's in my stomach. It's so bad that it feels like my stomach is going to get ripped back inside of my belly. So I lay flat, relax and press on the stomach muscles until the darn thing passes.
Has anyone else experienced this? It is literally a charley horse in my intestine/deep stomach area. But omg it's painful.
