That would be terrifing. I'm so glad it's somewhat under control now. I get more like attacks. They'll hit me all of the sudden & I get dizzy, my back & chest will start to hurt & I'll start to feel like I'm on fire.

I know how doctors can be. I was having trouble where I would suddenly throw up for no reason, my doctor at the time told me to stop drinking. Well I know when I'm throwing up from drinking, so I switched doctors & was diagnosed with IBS & was put on medication that has made a huge difference. Sometimes I think doctors hear so many complaints that certain ones go in one ear & out the other, so you have to find a doctor that will listen.
