It seems similar to your case. I had a very stressful day (important presentation for important people) and I started off by taking Imodium to make sure of no stomach troubles. I left early in the morning and came home around 3pm. I hadn't eaten or drank much so I didn't know what to do first. I made the mistake of eating first, and about an hour later was getting intense stabbing pains. Almost felt like my intestines were squeezing everything inside me. I didn't have any rumbling or D, and had a BM that morning so it wasn't C. I made a pot of peppermint tea and drank 2 cups. Within 10 mins of drinking the first cup the pain went away.

I think in this case it was simply dehydration. Water would have probably worked just as well as the tea. Were you dehydrated when your pain happened?
