How is stomach bloating connected with fainting, high blood pressure and fatigue?
Periodically, my stomach fills up with air and gets bloated. I instantly feel a bad feeling in my head and my vision blurs. I feel as though I’m going to faint or blackout.
My blood pressure spikes upward and I feel like I’m about to lose consciouness. I notice involuntary trembling (a little tingly feeling) in my limbs. This trembling (tingly feeling) started on the right side of my body, but is now on both sides. This tingling/trembling is not so much in my feet, but I can now feel it in my muscles, my back as well now.
I notice that I get tired easily. I do feel a little relief when I am able to belch/burp. Doctors aren’t sure yet what I have. Has anyone ever felt this way? Have doctors come up with a correct diagnosis?
Thanks for any help or input.

Dear friend, I am afraid I cant give a spot diagnosis. But I guess u might have had some investigations depending on your age and duration of symptoms. I would consider blood pressure/blood glucose/ basic bloods with VitB12/ ECG/ Cervical spine Xray or scan as you have abnormal sensations. (Do you have any neck pain/injuries/past problems). Others depending on your age.
How has your appetite been? Any migraine in family?
I am sure your docs would have considered most of these things.
These symptoms could be due to various things or nothing. I cant really think a lot at this moment but will add on later.

Yes I have the exact same symptoms! after eating sometimes, a lot lately stomach will bloat up, heart starts pounding faster and blood pressure goes up to like 170/99 I feel shaky teeth chattery like you would with fever, but no fever….very strange, I remember it started happening after I had surgery, for small bowl resection, from crohns disease. Ive never had high blood pressure before. You have to wonder if it was something that happened in the hospital or some of the meds or WHAT? I dont trust Doctors, so I am starting to do my own research. I had plenty of stomach bloating when i was sick with crohns and never had these symptoms so somethings isnt adding up!
