Chucaque
Originally refers to the physical distress caused by altitude sickness, but used broadly for any sudden ailment, fainting spell, shock, or even a bout of diarrhea.
In the Puna (a high-altitude plateau) he got a chucaque and barely survived. I had a chucaque when my son showed me his failing grades. He had to bolt to the toilet because nerves gave him a chucaque in the middle of the meeting.
