CAN ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT A "CHARLIE HORSE" IN THE STOMACH!

Has anyone moved a certain way, and boom! I have got a "charlie horse" just like one in you lower calf, but it is in my stomach. It hurt so bad, I just stayed still and tried to breath in and out slowly, and rubbed it waiting for it to go away. Is this common, or is it something I should be concerned about? It has happen to me about 4 or 5 times in the last 3 months. Just wondering???? Thanks bridget k.

you should call your doctor as there may be more to it. such as hernia. Please follow up even if it is only a phone call to them. Just don't take things for granted. best wishes Laura G

Hey Bridget!! I had that a few times, I think it was stress....it went away. But you might want to mention it to the doc. BUT.....I wanted to mention this.....when they wheeled me into my room after surgery....i was "crunching" my stomach. You know, like doing stomach crunches! It was totally involuntary..it was so bizarre. It didn't hurt, but it was strange. I don't know if it was from them cutting the muscles. Or, maybe I am just a weirdo...LOL!!!

So nice to hear from you my friend. I hope you are well. How is it going with the weight? What aree you up to? Was this after surgery that this happen to you? Or on the way in?
