Actually - funny you should mention the nicotine thing. A few years ago I was pretty unwell with a disease that had been gradually taking over for (as I know now) at least 12 years before diagnosis, one of the eventual outcomes was an almost total strangling of all the organs on my left side, including the bowel - but for years before that, I often experienced excrutiating lower abdominal pains, but these would be triggered by my first cig of the day - I've never understood why.
