Wow, so many people with the same problem as me. I've had this damn problem since I could remember, my mom even says only after a day of beingon this earth a open wind with some cold air blew in and boom diaper change. I get it when I go from hot to cold, when I get out of a shower I figured out to bathe with less warm water in winter so it doesn't affect me that much. Since I was born in Bulgaria and now live in America it happens everywhere it looks like, though I get it in America a lot more since they abuse the aircon here like nobodies business, and have to either wrap my belly with some blanket or go to the bathroom. Even when its above 90 degrees outside I have to have some blanket or sheet laided across my stomach to sleep or Ill be sorry. Doctors don't know what it is and jsut said do what you feel is best.

Hi I feel the same way I've been sick for a week now and I think it's it's because I sleep with a fan blowing cold air I recently started sleeping in the living room I felt a lot better but one night I ran a fan and got the crumbs again

I will tell you that you are not alone. This has been going on with me for about 5 years and even though I use the word "cramp" to describe what is happening I do so simply because there is not another word for it- most of the time it is so bad I cannot breathe. do yours move? Mine will switch from my back to my stomach to just under my right breast to my arm and so on in a split second. I have been to doctor after doctor, and taken test after test, we have monitored my food, tested my blood levels many times, to no avail. I finally decided it was my colesteral medicine through trial and error, and quit taking it. This was not the case

Lots of sufferers, very few answers.
Ive had this for over 20 years. I need to keep my stomach covered and warm or I will suffer. Also, drinking alcohol on an empty stomach and seasonal temperature changes (Spring / Autumn) bring it on.
The symptoms I get starts in the stomach but can spread to my whole body. It feels like I have the flu and can last for 3 days.
The cause could be anything that has been previously suggested! I have a lot of other symptoms and very few answers for any of them.

Chinese people call this 'zhao liang'. I've had it ever since I was little, and every time I warm myself up by putting on extra layers and socks, going to the bathroom, and rubbing my stomach. Hope this helps. Tea is also a good idea.

Have experience the same thing. It started in my 20s now am 32. The pain starts gradual till it gets to a peak, by then I would be laying on the waiting for it to go away. After about 3 min, the pain slowly starts to go down. I sometimes sweat a little as the pain is going. What i normally do now to avoid the pain is, l quickly drink hot water and place a the hot mugg on my stomach as drink I drink this way the stomach warms faster and slowly the pain leaves before it gets to the peak. Hope this works for you too!. But what is the root cause?

Hi guys!
So... You are definitely not crazy! This happens to many people and I am also one of them. What I know, from doing a lot of research and investigating it, is that this is something that we in Balkan region call reuma. The term is used for a state in which your own body starts hurting you because for a prolonged period of time it was exposed to cold. So once it is going on, every exposure to cold would make your bones hurt, your muscles to spasm ect...
There is no easy treatment for this but what helped me and some others is using tiger balm (or any heating cream). Apply it to the troubled area 3 times a day for about 20 days and it should relieve your sypthoms. I think in your case (as well is in mine) the muscles of the abdominal wall have suffered from reuma because of extensive use of AC or general overexposure to cold when you were younger.
You basically need to "extrude" this "cold" from your body and it will take a while. Try the proposed heating cream thing. I would say go to the oriental shops and buy tiger balm (comes in small, almost very small, doses). Do not apply too much since it is pretty strong stuff! :)
There is one more thing that could help since it is forcing your blood circulation to increase: after taking a warm shower, at the end, for only 4-5 seconds have cold water running over you. It is pretty much a shock (you can try ot out on your legs only for first time) but it will make your blood circulate better and help to warm up troubled areas.
I hope it helps, at least some of you! :)

Same thing happens to me. My ethnicity is Asian and my mom always tells me that I got a cold or something or I just didn't use a blanket when I slept. It's happening to me this week and it just stops and comes back. When I sleep I have to out the blanket on my stomach or else I get the cramps.

Yeah i think it is same problem exactly, and my mum and aunt have it. The sock thing is annoying especially when I sleep

I thought I was the only one who suffered from this! I had my gallbladder out due to stones, and my stomach has not been the same since. I also found that I get cold when I get a stomach ache, and don't get warm until it's over. Stress also triggers my stomach aches.

Hi, I have been having severe stomach pain whenever I go out anywhere. I try to go to the toilet before going out but nothing will come out. But when I go out and am on the way to a place, the pain starts and it gets greater. Starting to become a problem. Does anybody get this too? Have you solved the problem? Please do let me know!

Social anxiety disorder. I dropped out of high school when i was 15 becsuse of it. Get with a shrink and you can get meds to help. I had Paxil. But you have to do what makes you sick over and over until it goes away. Then you can slowly get off of the meds. I have been fine for 15 years.

There's at least one Scot getting the same problem, several folks in the USA and me (England)! I've had this problem since I had a bad bout of gastro-enteritis in my early 20s which seemed to make my stomach weak.
Horses also get something like this - colic - from drinking cold water after getting hot with exercise or when the weather suddenly turns cold
