Is this a partial blockage?

I've had my J Pouch for just over two years and I've had 3 incidents that have been identical in nature and I'm curious if it's possible it's a partial blockage or not. The first incident was last September, the second about a month ago and the third last week. The first incident I went to the hospital but had no answers and they guessed it was a blockage. This is what happens... I get initially hit with severe abdominal pain and nausea. The pain feels like someone is standing on my stomach, it's not a sharp pain, more of a pressure pain. The pain and nausea lasts for several hours and are severely uncomfortable. I pass very little stool during this time, what I do pass is generally very watery. When the pain and nausea subside, I generally feel run down but then begin to feel really sick as the day goes on and I end up developing a fever. The fever has been as high as 103. That lasts for one or two days and will then break. I would of went to the hospital last week but I was out of town working and it wasn't an option for me. All three occurrences have had the exact same symptoms and hit me the same way every time. What does this sound like? Is it normal to have a fever that high if it is a blockage of some sort?

Thanks!
