What could cause painful/difficult bowel movements that make u feel as if u were going to pass out, and breathing is difficult?

Constipation: You probably are suffering from severe constipation. To relieve the constipation you have to be well hydrated, eat lots fibreand take small doses of milk of magnesia (magnesium hydroxide) at bedtime. Straining at stool stimulates the vagus nerve , that gives a faint feeling.
