Spence, your symptoms sound very similar to my wife's. She's had it most if her life - fortunately, less often than when she was younger. She traced it to certain foods like raw vegetables or bananas, but the trigger foods have changed a bit over the years.
No diagnosis for her, either. It used to happen about every 60 days or so, now only about 3-4 times a year. The pain is debilitating. When it gets real bad, she also gets an intense headache.
A bad episode totally wipes her out and she sleeps like the dead for 3-4 hours. When she wakes, the intense pain is gone, but she's disoriented for a couple more hours.
Sounds kind of familiar? I hate it because there's nothing I can do for her...
