[QUOTE="Edwardian Gentleman, post: 2549954, member: 552457"] Thanks so much for the conversation. It's a thought (the ulcer thing) but perhaps my description of 'pain' is not correct. There is no traditional pain, just that message that I need food but really need it urgently. How can I compare it.... like anyone would have if they had not eaten all day and were on their feet all day is how I feel as the baseline all day. that would be bad enough but that exact same feeling intensifies to the point of 'panic stations' as soon as eating commences and the persists for hours until retreating to baseline stage again. I get extremely distressed about it, not because I am in actual pain in the traditional sense, but because it has removed all pleasure and normality from life. I guess the trouble with all symptoms is that only the person suffering is the one to experience it. Even reading my own posts, I can see how the medical people I have spoken too are having a tough time with this. It's sounds almost unbelievable... [/QUOTE]
