  6. Omg I remember back in 2010 after i had my son (c.section) I had an episode every day for a couple weeks where I would feel some sort of pressuring kinda even a burning sensation that would start in my upper back the kinda to my upper stomach.. it would gradually get worse then I would throw up and viola back to normal...totally stumped me and my Dr said it could be due to the cold weather and the epidural..i never found out what it was but it felt horrible.
