What Causes Abdominal Pain After Consuming Water On An Empty Stomach?
It all started while drinking lots of bottled water, mostly on an empty stomach. I started to get intestinal pain and feeling like I m about to get a belly ache. I can actually feel the pain travel through the intestine every inch as the food travels. I cut out dairy, did get better but still there. I notice a lot of sugary food or drink can make it worse. I don t normally eat or drink a lot with sugar. I have no other symptoms, such as diarhea, head aches neusea etc. Bowl movements normal. Just a discofort in intestine that could last for minutes or hours. I go to bed at night and end up felling better by morning but starts up again after breakfast.
