Gee--it sounds almost like symptoms of food poisoning ( but it probably not)! Try detoxing! until you can get to your GP. Your body gets plugged up and backed up with poisons from the things we eat and drink and don't digest well. And they just sit there in our colon! Then absorbed back thru our system. No wonder we (people) are sick! If the OTC remedies are relieving any of your symptoms then I would think it's more of a serious condition. Acid reflux --when it continues on for long long periods of time can lead to serious problems. I hope you will feel better soon! Try eating something soothing to your stomach that coats the lining and isn't spicy, acidy or salty.

See if you can find charcoal capsules. They should be in the vitamin aisle. They will help with acid, bloating & gas. Could you have eaten something bad? Maybe it's food poisoning since you are having cramps and the pepcid isn't working. Try the charcoal. You might try Tylenol or Ibuprofen for the pain.

Go to your health food store, like GNC and get you some NATURAL DIGESTIVE ENZYMES! Take them 3-4 times a day. They work FAST!!!!!

What they do is get rid of the bad enzymes from the food you've eaten and increase the good ones that your body needs to digest foods properly. It only takes a few minutes before you start feeling better!

I had the same problem until I started taking them!!!

Good luck!

Bless,

Sounds as if you have bowel spasms, if possible go along to your local pharmacy, they should be able to give you some to ease it.
You need an antispasmodic.

Good luck
