Epigastric Rising/ Gustatory Hallucination

Sun, 10/24/2010 - 23:27
Can this Epigastric Rising thing feel like almost a hunger type sensation that starts in your stomach and moves upwards? Sometimes I get a horrible nasty taste in my mouth after the rising thing. It has nothing to do with hygiene or what I ate and is gone as quickly as it comes.  I hear people smelling strange smells with Sz but what about tasting gross tastes?

Dear God I guess I am the freak I feared I was.  I am the only one to get funky tastes.  Please, someone just hurry up and lie to me and say you've had it,  to make me feel less freakish.
