Immediate stomach pain after eating pepper.

[Synastral]

So I haven't eaten any peppers in a few months, mostly because they weren't in season, But since I'm getting some boxes tomorrow/Thursday I thought i'd try to build up my tolerance a little bit. 
 
Popped a red scotch bonnet since it was the only thing I had from the freezer, and ate it, then almost a minute later, it felt like my stomach was being stabbed. The burn in my mouth was fine, I was able to deal with that, no problem
 
Normally when I hear stories of people's stomachs hurting after eating peppers it's usually a few hours after, not a minute after, so is this anything to worry about or am I just worried about nothing?

 Could be an ulcer ? Did you do this on an empty stomach ? 
 
Does seem odd but if you haven't had anything in a while might just be your stomach wasn't ready . I would eat one with some food and see how that goes.

I had breakfast, but that was about 6 hours ago. 
 
 
I'll try it again after I eat something, and hope I don't have to go crawling to the fridge getting the milk again lol

Could be psychosomatic.

I get that sometimes when I drop one on an empty stomach. I think the hungry acids get right to work on it, and you can feel it much more than if you have some food down first, which gives more of a time release effect to the gut.

Do not eat the hot ones on an empty stomach. Do not!
But if you have to do it... do it with some food.

Good food should not hurt.

Happened to me once when I decided to eat a quarter bottle of Insanity Sauce with chips cause I had nothing else to eat.
 
While I was eating, not bad, then 30 seconds later, I was lying on my couch feeling like I was doing one of those "lying on a bed of nails" things that went horribly wrong.
 
About 3 minutes later, huge endorphin rush.

My cross peppers did this to me too.. Thier insanely hot but as soon as they hit my stomach it also felt like a meat hook lodged itself in my stomach.. Might be a particular type of capsaicin in high quantities ?
