I'm not expecting a whole lot, I guess I just wanted to write my symptoms down here so I can remember all of them until I get to the doctor. And maybe in the process someone might be able to relate.
I just have this horrible stomach pain every so often. Seems like it's getting more frequent. Starting a couple of months ago and has happened about 6 times total, the last 3 being with two weeks. It isn't a normal stomach ache, I can tell something isn't right. It's right after I eat and persists the whole time my stomach is full. The pain and discomfort is gone when my stomach is empty and I'm hungry.
I also feel weak and nauseous when this happens, sometimes have hot flashes and a little difficulty breathing. It's MUCH worse when I'm up and moving around, gets better when I sit still. Pepto Bismal seems to help; Rolaids, ginger tea, and carbonated drinks do not. There is some grumbling, movement in my stomach. Gas is present but does not seem to be causing the entire problem, as passing it does not provide complete relief. This always happens at the end of my day- it is never when I wake up or mid day. Today it actually woke me up from sleep.
If anybody has any ideas I'd love to hear them, and if not thanks anyway for letting me get my thoughts out here.

Hello, I am new here.. but I do have some of those symptoms because i have hypotension. Especially when I am dehydrated (when my blood pressure is even LOWER), i get severe nausea, like a rumbling throughout my whole abdomen. I do also get dizzy and feeel short of breath. I find that the only thing that works for me is to drink ALOT of water and powerade and take a gravol.

I get the same thing and I was diagnosed with gastritis--inflammation of the stomach lining. Not a pleasant thing...
