You could have an intestinal virus. We humans do pick these up easily from being in crowds, around children or animals. But what the others said is also true. There is no treatment for a virus except rest and fluids, but it would be nice to find out if that's what it is. Otherwise, getting a diagnosis of IBS also requires a diagnosis from a gastroentrologist. There are things that can help. I have it but found the meds too intense for me. Good luck.

Im not a Dr. So please use this as, a suggestion; from another fybromyalgia sufferer. It sounds like IBS. Irritable Bowel Syndrome. 1 of the many illnesses, under the umbrella of fybromyalgia. These illnesses start at all diff times. If its the first time, and lasts more than 24 hrs. You should see a stomach Dr. And you have my sympathy. Ive had IBS since college.

If you don't get a proper amount of sleep, your body doesn't have time to rejuvenate. Sleep aids help. I sat and wrote the over 60 symptoms of Fibro so I would better understand myself. That's when I realized how much Fibro reeks havoc on your body. Stomach cramps a nd Gi problems are all symptoms. If you have diarrhea with it, then you need to decide when and if you need medical attention. Good luck

Could be a flare, possibly the fibro. I had similar symptoms before Christmas last year and let it go for 3 weeks before I went to hospital. My gastroenterologist said that I shouldn't have gone any longer than 48 hours before seeking help from him or the hospital. I was hospitalized with C-diffile infection. Seek help ASAP
