Abdominal cramps: These cramps, did they occur once or several times? The differential is quite wide and more information is needed. If they have occured repeatedly, you need an evaluation to see what is causing them.

Abdominal pain: Does this usually happen after a meal? Do you tend toward the constipated side? If your answer is yes, then you may need to take more magnesium in your diet. It sounds like a strong gastrocolic reflex with vasovagal reaction that you're experiencing.
