Wow! I'm exactly the same! Never after sleeping through the night, only after naps about 75% of the time, always around 4/5 pm. Crazy! I have no diagnosis either.

I'm 37 year old female, I have hereditary high blood pressure and am also anneameic and have scoliosis. I started having severe pain in my entire torso after my daughter was born. It occurrs only at night when I sleep. It was so bad that I had to roll out of bed and crawl just to use the restroom at night and in the morning. It is accompanied by a lot of gas and bloating my upper stomach always seems to be hard and protudes out. I've had back problems ever since I was young from doing wheelchair transfers for my disabled mother. When I had my daughter naturally all I wanted to do was squat but the hospital bed I was confined to didn't accommodate this! They wouldn't let me out of the bed because of they were monitoring my blood pressure, which I really had a problem with because women should give birth however is most comfortable for them! So after labor I was clotting right away so the midwives had to push on my stomach and abdomen to help me birth the plecenta. It was more painful than the birth its self! I felt like since my pelvis must have split during labor that maybe my body would just not ever return to it's normal state. I was 5'7" 120 lbs in Jean size 5-7 when I got pregnant at 31 years of age. After my daughter I am now 37 years old 5'7" and 150- 160 lbs and wear jeans size 10-12. I feel always bloated and when I eat I don't feel like I'm eliminating as much waste as I should. I'm sure all these problems are related to my pain. I feel like I might have a gluten allergy or too much yeast in my gut so I take pro biotics and sometimes digestive aids. It's still a painful problem to feel this badly every morning.

This is a painful feeling, when I get up from the bed or lying down on the floor or sofa I experience the worst pain I have ever felt. There is no pain when I am down, it is when I get up. I even now have to sleep in a recliner and keep my head up. If I am flat I suffer. It scares me because the pain is so bad that I can not move because I think I might pass out. Dies anyone have any thoughts on what this is?

I have no answers but have suffered the same thing for years. Cannot lie down after I eat. My problem is only during the day, so I avoid it, and don't want to take meds for a symptom! What's the root cause? I have no idea either!!

My about 50-year old husband has had abdominal pain when lying down/reclining during the day and almost every night since he is a teen. Nights are worse when he has eaten late at night, a lot, or a heavy meal. He has had all kinds of tests twice now (when he was 23 and 45). The only anomaly ever found were spots of mucous membrane of the stomach in the duodenum. Antacid/ anti-reflux medication has not helped, nor did a histamine-free and lactose-free diet. The best solution so far is a bed base of which we have raised the head end permanently with about 40 cm in combination with sleeping on the stomach. I would like to know if other posters with "abdominal pain after laying down" have been diagnosed with mucous membrane of the stomach in the duodenum. Physiologically it seems to explain the abdominal pain, but the GI doctor was not sure this finding explained the complaints.

Try eating strictly gluten free for a month and see if that helps. No soy sauce in your meals, no oats, no foods that are fried with breaded things, very strict. It might change your life and you have no clue. On a side note, I have been diagnosed with celiac disease (genetic testing and months of appointments) and myself and three others I know all didn’t have it show up on the blood tests. I find seeing if not eating makes you feel better is more helpful anyway.

I have the same issues. Can’t ever lay down during the day. If I get up after I go to sleep at night, to go to the bathroom, I get horribly bloated stomach and cramping. I have Crohn’s disease and my dr can’t ever give me a reason why this happens. I’ve had colonoscopy and endoscopy that don’t show anything. Ugh. Even if I eat 4 hours before going to bed and then get up 10 minutes after laying down the cramping is there. It’s SO hard.
No napping during the day, snuggling on couch to watch a movie, laying on the beach. I hate it.

I have been experiencing the exact same thing. I can never lie down in the afternoon. Can not lie down on the beach to tan. Can never go to a dentist, yoga, anything where I have to lie down in the afternoon. If I do I experience the most intense pain and bloating a few minutes after getting back into an upright position and almost always gets worse before it gets better. It can last up to 2 hours. This is really influencing my life.and I would do anything to be able to sort this out.

Hi. I have the same problem. Doesn't matter if I eat dinner early or late AND I cannot burp. When I tell people about this they think I am crazy. Pleas let me know if you have found a solution to this :) Since it is apparently 10 years since you wrote this comment :)

LOL these replies are all the same on these sites-
WOW me too
Or a novel wall of symptoms
Has anyone ever actually found help?
Are there answers to be found?
Welcome to the American health care system, where instead of affording actual doctors, we are reduced to commiserating online.. never getting better.
This is a mockery for people who need help.
Good luck and health to all who posted.

I have the same issue! Has anyone found anything about this? This is very debilitating. The gastroenterologist i’m seeing isn’t giving me any answers ...

Hi everyone. I too have had a similar problem at least since adolescence, where I generally can't lie down an hour or so after eating or I will get lots of pain and bloating on standing up. Doctors have had nothing to say, except one who recently said bloating in general could be celiac disease, so I'm getting tested. The things that help are lying down long enough for the gas to pass through my system before standing up (because I experience no pain while lying down, only on standing up), and also sometimes it has been very helpful to take a Tums before lying down. Once bloated, a warmed blanket or large heating pad can help move the gas faster. I have thought about this a lot and can't make sense of the chemical /mechanical reason why this could be happening. Bloating presumably comes from a chemical reaction that occurs because of the physical position. Is there a "door" that opens when we lie down that's not supposed to, releasing enzymes or acid that should not be? Are there enzymes produced in the large intestine after eating that shouldn't be in the stomach, but if we lie down, because a "door" between the stomach and intestine doesn't close properly, the enzymes get into the stomach and cause problems? Or does lying down somehow prompt production of enzymes, and not the right ones?
