What is this "feeling" I keep hearing about in your stomach?

Mon, 12/06/2004 - 03:28
I do not get them as much as I used to but I never knew what it was. It is hard to explain but it usually occurred when I woke up and I would have this awful feeling in my stomach and would fight to go back to sleep because I did not want to wake up and feel it. It is still very hard to explain except that I felt like something was perculating in my stomach and I would feel like I was shaking from the inside out. It would not last long but it was enough that I did not want to wake up and face it. . . does this sound like what you have felt or does it feel differant?  I have never been able to find out what it was although sometimes I have it now when I am awake but not very often anymore since I have been on klonopin. Please let me know-- It has been a mystery-- I thought maybe I was crazy or something at the time.
