had an unusual occurrence today.
As many here who read this know, I've been eating quite a few superhots & I have increased my tolerance. Well

today, before I ate anything to coat my stomach, I decided to eat a quite small Guhahati that I've had out on the balcony. It was only around an inch long and slenderish like a Cayenne. I cut it open, looked inside. Only a couple of seeds and a sheen of capsacin oil. So, I started chewing on it and the initial flavor was very unique & pleasing. 2 mins later I was running for the refrigerator to break out some Greek yogurt pronto. Ate 3 spoonfuls and ran into the bathroom. Stayed there for around 15 mins doubled-over with capsacin cramps.

Tried to force it up but there was no there there (the pepper was only 1" long) to force up. Went back to room to lie down & 10 seconds later, back to bathroom doubled over w/ capsacin cramps

for another 10 mins. That was the first "panic mode" pepper I've eaten since my first super hot that I tried. Now I know what Nigel & MGOLD86 felt like on a couple of their taste tests.
Anyway, I just got out of bed 15 minutes ago. I ate the pepper at 10:50 am this morning

Don't know if it was not coating the stomach or the pepper is simply hotter than hell. I may, MAY, try another one, UNDER PROPER conditions such as using an elixir beforehand like tmudder's which MGOLD86 mentioned on his Glog.
That was an experience I won't soon forget. I was seriously thinking it might burn a hole in me gullet but I'm not a doctor. Seems like all is well, 4+ hrs later.
Moral is- don't eat superhots, especially on an empty stomach, no matter how good I might think my tolerance is.
