Hi Soup

What you probably experienced is a flashback through bodily sensations. There is a book called 'The Body Remembers'. It talks about how we store traumatic memories in the cells of our body because it is too painful for our mind to bear. The memories start to reach your conscious mind when your mind is ready to deal with the trauma/s. I've been experiencing the same thing for three years so I guess I'm use to it now. They are also called 'psycho-somatic' memories. You may get a sore arm or upset stomach which cannot be explained by a medical doctor. But are due to psychological turmoil associated with traumatic events entering your conscious mind.
