I just finished taking my 3rd trip to the emergency room in the last 2 years. This is what happens... I have unbearable abdominal pain which sends me to the bathroom with diarrhea. During this - my hands, feet and the top of my head start to furiously itch. I then get flushed and feel like I'm going to pass out. (The first episode I passed out and fell off the toilet) The pain comes in wave after wave (like very fast labor) and is so excruciating that there is no position that gives relief. It is in the lower abdominal area, but effects my back and I can't really remember if it's worse on either side. Seems like maybe the left is worse. I get somewhat nauseous. The pain is a 10 and lasts (this last time) for over 2 hours. And as suddenly as it came, it went. By the time I finally see a doctor - the pain has subsided. Blood results show that my white cell count is high and that my sugar rises (179). My sugar is usually right on the border of 110 or so. No blood in urine. A colonoscopy at one time showed that I have ulcerative colitis - but this last doctor said that colitis attacks don't attack like this... said it sounded more like a kidney stone. They did a CT scan - no stones. No one seems to know what this is and because it happens with no particular stimuli like a common food, etc. (other than maybe high stress), they don't seem to be able to give me a diagnosis. Does anyone have a clue what this could be? Thanks in advance...
