last wed. night I woke with extreme nausea and when I got out of bed to go to the bathroom I found that I also has extreme weakness, thought I might pass out before getting to the bathroom called for my husband to help me I was going down but with his help I managed. I was trembling and my husband said I was white as a sheet. I did not vomit, I was cold sweat and for a few minutes my husband could not find my pulse, he finally did and it said , if we figured right was at 72...after I got over the extreme weakness I went back to bed. There was no pain except for the pain in the lower part of my stomach...it felt like beginning stages of labor. I just thought it was my stomach trouble again. I have a problem for quite sometime with bloating...sometimes very bad. I have been to see a gastroenoligist and they said it was inflammation and was due to stress. gave me prilocec (know it s not spelled correctly but you know what I mean..ha ha) and I take that 40mg. every night. but with the spell i had this past week the pain was about on a scale from 1-10...it was about an 8, I also had a fever of 100.4 the next day and had slight pain radiating from my upper back and around to the pain in the lower stomach...I then thought it was maybe a stomach virus and I would just wait it out. My sister called today and told me she heard my exact symptoms on the radio and could not remember what it was called, she said it had 3 letters and it had to do with the pancreases. Might you have an idea what that could have been?
