What Causes Nausea, Headaches, Bloating, Abdominal Discomfort, Lightheadedness And Gas?
I have nausea feelings often that come on quickly. They relieve with belching for a few minutes, then the feeling increases again. I have trouble going to the bathroom. I go around 3 times a week. I have palpitations sometimes, with very hard headaches (you can feel head pulsing in my temples). I have bloating, abdominal discomfort, gas, light headedness, etc. I am a mouth breather as I sleep with my mouth open. I am not overweight. I am 5 7 weigh 130 and am in good shape. I am nervous to what this condition is. I also have very very bad upper back and neck pain, and between shoulder blades that sometimes radiates down my arm. I don t know if that relates. Sometimes when I use the restroom it doesn t look like what has come out has been properly digested or broken down. Could you please advise?

Hi,
Based on your symptoms, I would suggest the possibility of one or more disorders causing these symptoms. You have not mentioned the investigations done previously. Bloating, abdominal discomfort and evacuation of partially digested food could indicate malabsorption disorders or lactose intolerance. I would suggest you to take probiotics thrice a day which will improve your intestinal health. Gastrointestinal reflux should also be ruled out.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
