What Would Cause Severe Cramping Pains On Stomach?

On the weekend i started having severe cramping pains in my stomach , this is not the first time, they start to intensify and are almost like a contraction, they become so painful that i start hicupping, getting hot then cold and eventually vomit,, i have not had this for a few months, i did have a barium meal and they told me it was scar tissue on my bowel, i do not understand how this comes on in the first place. For 15 months i was pain free whilst on anti depressants, i am thinking of going back on them if only to releive this condition.
