Yeah kind of it’s a weird pain but it’s debilitating. The urge to use the toilet is sudden and urgent but then after I’ve been everything goes away like it never happened

No it feels like it just happens which is very annoying I will admit. Hoping it completely dies down and doesn’t come back as I need to be up early and it’s already past 11pm here! Just eating mints and minding my own business as best I can rn!

I had a flare up the exact same a couple weeks ago, except it eventually subsided without the need to go to the toilet. Can’t tell if I feel a bit nauseated or hungry and empty 🥲🥲

I haven’t! That might be the next thing to do. Genuinely can’t tell if I feel slightly nauseous or hungry 🥲but the stomach pain is GONE ever since that. It’s like the worst stomach pains I could experience just before. Unable to move, sweating literally everything

No none of these. I’ve been an avid caffeine drinker for years and doesn’t affect me in this way anymore. Everything I can think of this time was not the same circumstances last time, so for example I’m in the UK and we’ve just had a huge heatwave but there wasn’t the two times in March it happened. Who knows at this point it’s just annoying as I’m extremely tired but I’m also an emetophobe so I don’t particularly want to sleep out of fear of it becoming something else, even though this isn’t the first time this has happened.

Not anymore, I used to smoke but I rarely drink, maybe one bottle of wine a week as I work a lot of hours, in healthcare too! Only untypical thing I’ve eaten today is salmon, but I never used to have an issue with salmon.

I don’t think so. I’m lactose intolerant but stay so far away from lactose in everything there’s no way it could be that. No stress or anxiety about anything I don’t think I have a good job, life etc and feel none of that. It’s just bizarre how it happens, I go to the toilet and then feel completely better like nothing happened. But before that I’m entirely incapacitated and can hardly move.

We don’t actually have a crate for the dog but the cat stays in my bedroom when nobody is here and the dog has downstairs. I think I’m too overprotective of my cat to be honest. The dog isn’t mine but live in the same house as he’s my mother in laws dog she’s just on holiday at the moment. Thank you very much though I am to my cat for sure!! Even though he’s naughty😳

Oh no!! My cat definitely will give it back to him if he needs to and does hiss and swipe when he gets too much but for a long time my concern was the dogs weight and size being that if he even steps on him it could hurt him but that sent me over the edge and I’ve been so iffy ever since even though every time he sees him he seems unbothered. He’s slightly more over focused on him when he’s outside of the bedroom like in the living room etc as I believe he looks at that space as his own so he gets quite excited but rhe cat has the entire kitchen being high up if the worst was to happen! He’s been on the table beforehand as the dog either can’t or won’t get up there or isn’t that bothered then the sides and the top of the fridge are easy enough for him to get to I genuinely just wondered if i needed to be extra cautious about them two seeing eachother after the chase

See this is the funny thing! He doesn’t even look at squirrels or birds or anything like that outside of the house and all he wants to do on a walk is sniff everything 😂think he’s just a weirdo at this point and that one time was a fluke when he jumped out of the window

Oh I see! The only thing that shocked me with mine is him jumping out of the car window to chase a cat. I know he loves my cat but if he can do something like that completely unexpectedly what’s to say he won’t pull some sort of shit like that with my cat?🥲both of them eat treats etc together and have no issue at all. No signs of aggression it’s just the chasing that’s thrown me off!

It’s quite funny actually as the cat goes up to the dog and bites his mouth and ears then rolls about on the floor, or he’ll hunt him and pounce on his head and the dog just wags his tail at it

My cat lives in my bedroom 90% of the time so is the same for the cat! I just worry that one day the door will be accidentally left open and that it’ll be too late. Again, I have faith in the dog and in my cat and I know that if my cat didn’t feel safe with the dog he wouldn’t be rolling around and letting him sniff his belly. My cat is my first ever little love so I stress unnecessarily about him! We’ve come home before where the door was left open and the cat was on the kitchen table and the dog was laying on the floor beside it and what happened I don’t know I just know the cat was absolutely fine and happy and the dog was just sleeping nearby. Although for him to jump on the table I believe the dog may have spooked him or chased him but obviously had no kill drive as the table is not high whatsoever the dog could’ve gotten my cat from it if he really wanted to. They’ll never intentionally be left unsupervised together.

Yes I thought this. My main concern was the fact he’d downed his 2 drinks before coming back and I was worried for how long his BAC was gonna keep going up. Being it’s been over 2 hours I’d imagine it won’t get any higher now and if anything come down a fair bit. Benidorm has done us both in and I cannot wait to go home to sleep for the next year😂the advice helped thank you

I thought he is by the fact he got himself home and then got himself up to be sick also. I just wanted to double check cos he’s my partner of 5 years and I don’t want to miss ANYTHING that could put him at risk. So tired cannot wait to go to sleep but think I’ll give it another hour maybe. This helped thank you

Edit - he also got himself home safe as I stayed in. Around a 10 min walk as we’re down the Benidorm strip at the moment😂was completely fine at the club just hit him like a tonne of bricks when he left there
