Cold Turkey

I had a bit of a scare this morning: I woke up with inexplicable* pain in my lower abdomen (*not lady- or other recognizable cramps). For lack of a better idea I stumbled to the toilet, where I got a heavy attack of nausea, accompanied by cold sweats. It made me very nervous. After slightly freaking out and wondering what to do, I slowly recovered and started to feel well enough to start the day.
I don't know what the hell was going on, but it was rather frightening.
Especially since I had had such a well behaved evening last night: no tv and hardly any computering (only to check my mail). Instead I had snuggled up in my love seat and read for hours (The Time Traveller's Wife) before I went to bed around 11.30.
Hmmm, maybe the symptoms were caused by withdrawal.
