Yes! you aren't alone! I have to say that I have been pretty lucky, though. I have had 3-4 attacks that were the doubling over type- one sent me to the ER. Otherwise, I get what I call "a low level" a pain if I eat the wrong things, and then I am scared out of my wits that a full-blown attack is coming. The worst part is, that the full-blown attacks take about 6 hours to resolve, almost everytime. SO, when it starts, I just lay in bed and watch the clock. How long do yours last?
