I'm in the band and orchestra at my school, but I've found that any time I play the clarinet, my abdominal pain worsens, and frequently I have to run to the bathroom. It doesn't help that my orchestra practices right after lunch, so then it's even worse. Does anyone else find that blowing into wind instruments is a problem?

Yeah, I have had to leave almost every time, and it's sooo embarrassing! I like playing but I've been faking playing a lot lately just so I don't keep on cramping. Maybe my stomach doesn't like my diaphragm moving...
