A very odd ovulation experience

I have a question about something very odd that happened 14 years ago. Obviously it was a long time ago, but maybe an answer might be useful to someone else...

I was 24, and had had a couple of incidents of mittleschmerz over the years where I was mildly uncomfortable. Then on this particular day I went to work and was feeling abdominal pain. Not a sharp focused pain, but kind of an all-over gas pain, on the left side, nearer the top of the abdomen. But the main symptom was an INCREDIBLE tiredness. It took every ounce of willpower I had just to sit upright. I dragged myself home from work and upstairs and crawled into bed. That day and the next day it was all I could do to get myself the 30 feet from bed to bathroom -- I'd have to stop 1/2-way and lie down in the hallway. The next morning (after 1.5-2 days of this) I woke up and felt totally fine (a little hungry & dehydrated, but I fixed that with some breakfast.) Later that day I realized that I had been having cervical mucus signs of impending ovulation that had just ended, and it was right on schedule for ovulation.

I never had another experience like this. When I resumed ovulation after the first time I gave birth (6 years later) I started having very painful mittleschmerz each month, but that is a very sharp, very localized pain. One other thing is that I very rarely ovulate on my left side (about once every 2 years).

So does this weird 14-year-old incident sound like the "classic" symptoms of something? Or is it just one of those mysteries?
