Guest CyberPixie Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Twice now, if I've had a lot of stress or been very upset I would get either a terrible headache and feel extremely tired or have agonising joint pains and then all of a sudden out of the blue I'd start being sick and having diahorrea like a really violent stomach bug over 24-48hrs.I thought this was an adrenal crisis as Addisons is suspected in me but my endo says it could be POTS. Has anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie802 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Hi, sometime I will get bad stomach pains then have to go the bathroom. While in the bathroom I feel very faint, weak, and I get sweaty. Still don't know what causes it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneEyre9 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi CyberPixie,It could be a lot of things, but I know that along with POTS, I have IBS and that can cause severe diarrhea when i'm under stress. The autonomic nervous system regulates digestion, so it is all interrelated. I hope you can work with your doc to find the cause! It is most unpleasant to have severe cramps and diarrhea...not to mention it makes you dehydrated! Kristen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
