Fainting?: If you are fainting, you need to get checked right away to find out what is going on.  You need to be examined in person.  Call the doc who treated you or go to an ER now if you are dizzy or fainted today.  If not get checked by doc tomorrow or to an ER if your symptoms return.

Question 5

yesterday i was eating and suddenly got nauseous and had a normal bowel movement. since then i keep getting nauseous, cramps, gas pains in my belly button. i had a normal bowel movement this morning. on my period and have been stressing. what is this?

Accepted Answer

: I would assume that the stress and hormonal changes related to your period have combined to create an irritable bowel pattern. I recommend eating small amounts more often than a full meal. I expect bowel pattern will normalize after the period. Drinking flat ginger ale helps combat nausea. Taking simethicone after eating prevents gas buildup.
