Sudden Digestive Problems - What could it be?

I've basically been having a 'bad stomach' for the last few days but can't see what's causing it unless it's a bug. But there's been no vomiting.

Since about Wednesday last week I've been having unpleasant, irregular pains in my lower abdomen. It doesn't coincide with food or drink (either having food or what I've been eating, it seems) but I get these awful sensations as if I'm about to lose the contents of my stomach (downwards), to put it lightly. And it hurts, as if it's a massive cramp or something.

It's not severe enough that I'm toilet-bound but I don't really want to leave the house, either!

Is this something to take to the doctor/has anyone experienced similar? I'm worried it might be IBS.

Doctor Fenchel or at least a telephone consult. I suffered for 10 days with nausea/vomitting undigested food upto to 15hrs after eating and was given a working diagnosis of Gastroparesis tho meds aren't helping some of the time.

Thanks for your advice. It sounds like yours is/was really horrendous! Hope you get better soon!
