    I once had to lay down on the bathroom floor in a fetal position between rounds. Sweat was literally dripping. What a way to feel alive whilst expecting death!

      Maybe a vasovagal reaction? Drink water and cross your legs while on the toilet, try not to push too hard.

      I’ve definitely had it bad enough that I had to lay in a cool bath between rounds. It sucks.

      Not an MD, but that sounds like a problem you might want a doctor to look at. My partner of many years had terrible gallstones that were fairly debilitating. When it got to its worst and she started turning yellow, a few days before she had an episode like you described.

      Talk to your doctor about weird painful shits.
