My answer to both you questions is YES, all the time lol. I totally know what you mean about getting the sweats. When my stomach is hurting alot i start to get sweaty and just feel crappy so i go upstairs into my bedroom(only room in house with air conditioner) I either lay down and fall asleep or i jsut sit there and cool off. I find that sometimes having a hot water bottle on your stomach can really help in many ways but have a fan or something on you so you don't overheat. Also putting a little fan in your bathroom that you can turn on when your in there for a while can help alot. Your not alone.
