Been experiencing a similar condition for years.
Seemingly instantaneous upset stomach, lower intestinal cramping and diarrhea due to drastic temperature changes. Occasionally will feel cold or even shiver despite a high fever.
Predominantly triggered by warm/stuffy/humid/still air. For example, having a heater operating in a sealed room or entering a warm indoors from a cold windy outdoors.
Temporary relief found by regulating body temperature by going outside for several minutes or taking a shower. Symptoms usually resurface upon returning indoors or leaving shower again due to the sudden temp change.
In my case there may be psychological links to claustrophobia.
Conditions consistency is often misunderstood or disregarded as a "one off" by others. Looking for an explanation or fitting condition title.

Hello, I have a brief experience with this and it happens frequently when I ingest dairy. I find it usually leads to a stomach cramping/ache, which makes my stomach cold. I find that its gas trapped in the small intestine, and peppermint tea helps as it leads me to relieving the gas almost instantly. If that doesnt do the trick, turning the body upside down makes the gas bubbles shift and allows you to flatulate. I do this by lying close to a wall on my forearms, and then walking my legs up the wall behind me. Once the lower body is high enough up, and I come down I usually feel the need to flatulate if not burp. If nothing happens, then keep giving it a try. I only discovered this by doing yoga and the relief it can provide the intestines. Gives it a kickstart. My theory on this is that gas prevents proper blood circulation on the small intestine, which then leads to pain in the stomach and also a cold feeling. Keeping the belly warm via clothing and tea usually promotes a warm gas free tummy.

Starting last year in winter i experience abdominal cramps which first start early in the morning around 3am. After a few days i then experience some frank funny pain in my back. Have tried to keep myself warm still in pain. Not on any drugs though

Wow I am glad I found this page. It is nice not to be alone with some thing. If I am warm and go into anyplace that is cool or cold I get instant stomach pains and have to find a bathroom ASAP as it gives me diarrhea. It is so frustrating that I hate going out any where any more. And you are right no one understands and it is so embarrassing.....

I am a new poster here, and I also have this problem. I am a female, I've had it since I can remember and my dad has had the same thing for his whole life as well. Here are some facts about how it affects me:
1. Cold, but maybe more precisely - change of temperature makes my stomach upset immediately. Wind is my worst enemy, even if it's 35 C degrees outside, the slightest breeze will have me looking for a toilet if I'm not properly dressed (which I will explain later)
2. Cramps only last until I can go to the toilet. However, that has to be quick, I don't know, 10-15min until it becomes unbearable. Not the pain, but the urge for "the number two". Honestly, once I couldn't find it for half an hour and I started to cry because I couldn't control myself anymore. Luckily, I managed to find it in the last moment.
3. I only need to go to the toilet once, and the cramps stop really quick and I don't have to go anymore.
My only solution:
KEEP STOMACH WARM AT ALL TIMES.
Winter is easy, multiple layera and I'm secure, although it can happen.
For summer it's a bit trickier, but recent fashion of high waister clothes has made it easier. Trousers and skirts of thicker material that hug your stomach are amazing.
I also made my own "heaters" - first one is a cut up spandex, so it only has like a tube that goes around my waist. It's great for flowy tank tops that I normally wouldn't be able to wear, and for those tops when you can't wear a camisole underneath. Another thing is that I cut of the upper part of thicker stockings and use that as a stomach cover as well. I tuck it inside my underwear and it doesn't move :)
In the end, warmth can stop the cold from upsetting stomach. Sometimes if I feel something is going to happen (I've develeped a detector by now haha), and I'm not in the right clothing, pressing hands or whole forearms on the stomach to create a shiled/heat and not moving them for some time helps in most cases.

Well what I can say is, I'm pretty sure that it's not some kind of symptom of disease or whatever. It's happening right now to me, usually when this happens to me I go to the bathroom and take everything that's in stomach out and then I don't feel the pain anymore.

This happens to me a lot, not just during my period & it SUCKS. I find it usually helps to use heating pads or a warm water bottle (you can even use your dog lol) on your stomach or to lay in fetal position (knees to chest) & keep a small heater in your room (I even have to use a heater in the SUMMER & my mother thinks I'm insane)

You guys may have IBS (Irritable bowel syndrome) I suffer from the same thing you guys are saying A/C really does it for me. Except I usually have a little diarrhea along with it. I always thought it was just my IBS

Hi guys, I have been suffering of may the symptoms mentioned here for years. I've lived in a hot-weather place and cold places and I still experience, more or less, the same reaction to air/breeze and especially to air-conditioned.

I've had this, too, on and off in my life. I am not Chinese but I believe in traditional Chinese medicine. It's cold air invading your stomach. If you don't believe it, laugh all you want, but fact is a lot of people around the world like me experience this.

Same symptoms here. Feels like nerves related. Warm seems to relax it. No doctor that I asked knows what it is. The response from Dr. Artem really not helpful and not addressing the issue. This is not viral.
