Happened for the first time. What to do?

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

I was lying down (at rest) and turned sideways while watching. I suddenly felt that someone just punched me at my epigastric region. At first, I was able to control my breathing. When it started to get worse, I sat down and went out to get some fresh air and took deep breaths. It lasted for about 5 minutes. I felt weak that I fell down twice because of the pain. The after effects of the pain were slow breathing, yawning and belching. It's minimal to gone now. Should I still consult a doctor?
