Hi Sandra, what's happened? Are you stressed about going away? When do you go away and where? I think you're panicking a bit, breathe, see your chemist 1st thing and your doctor if you have to. You need to remove all the gas in your stomach, this will probably be causing the pain. Good luck let us know what you do and how you get on. You sound like you need to get away. I hope you have a great time.

Try an antispasmodic like Buscopan or painkillers. I am assuming you have IBS? If these don’t work, ask your doctor for something else.

Buscopan, Imodium, cocodamol and mint tea

I take Imodium for IBS that helps.
