i know its horrible isnt it! I had never had it, and then i got it and i couldnt move, it was painful to walk and i had to go home, i even went straight to the doctor (i too thought it was too painful just to be indigestion) and my husband called me a hypochondriac. Oh well, im with you on the pain
