THANKS
it lasted for a week when winter first came, what my nanna told me to do was put heating pads in your hoodie pocket and when your at home put a hot towel from the dryer to ease the cramping, it helped me to put a heater in the bathroom then when you get out the bath turn it off, and let your body get gradually cooler instead if walking straight into the cool air
I get the cramps whenever my stomach feels a breeze or cool air, and it only happens in summer, the A/C is the worst thing for me, shower or no shower. And I usually have unpleasant visits to the bathroom, it's like I get poisoned the moment I get the cramps .
I was just wondering if you found a solution, every time I explain my situation to anyone they look at me all confused. No one suffers from this or understand what I'm saying.
If my feet are cold then I'll get gas
When the weather changes quickly, I end up getting the wake up at 4am with cramps.
I grab a hot water bottle and place on my feet then 10mins later my stomach.
It's gotten so bad before where I have to take medicine, as I don't really ever take medicine.
I find no gas helps.
Tablets for gas, stomach cramps and booting of the stomach.
It's the worse thing ever.
The cold stomach/gas want to kill you syndrome!!!
Hi I suffer the exact same thing and have done so since being diagnosed with ibs. If I get a cold breeze or stomach feels cold I get cramping and sometimes diarrhea. The only solution is to keep my stomach warm so I am almost always wearing a tank or lycra singlet under any top unless it's very hot and I just get away with a singlet. I can't wear flowy tops or supeshort tops and like you when I tell someone they think I'm nuts.
Try ginger tea!
it's incredible so many people suffer with this. I've had it ever since I was a kid and it tended to happen when I went in to a cooler room or into a shop. whenever i said something no one understood what I meant and now i've found my little cousin gets it too. genetic maybe?
Yup me too. I've been suffering with this since I was a child, but when I try to explain, people think it's just my imagination. Even a doctor dismissed it. Because of this I wear warmer underwear than normal people. I found I get cramps even when my feet are cold, so I have to wear socks nearly all the time, except for when it's really hot. Very, very annoying thing. I think it's genetic, my mum has the same problem.
dear all. they think you are nuts cuz the culture in america does not believe in getting an upset stomach from cold air. in the middle east it's a very common cause for all sorts of stomach flu and common cold. if you dont keep your stomach warm you get hit with it, i lived in the USA and i am Lebanese. and my family in the states think i am nuts when i tell them this. but here even the doctor asks you to stay warm. when you change temperatures your body organs react and it's one of the things that cause upset stomach and even sometimes common cold. A/C is the worse thing. keep your stomach warm and if you turn it on in your car keep it away from your face and body.
