What Could Upset Stomach, On And Off Headache, Fever, Sweating, Lightheadedness With Distorted Vision Indicate?

I've had an upset stomach, accompanied with on and off headaches, fevers, gas, and random sweats for two weeks now. A few days ago I was standing and when I turned around I became lightheaded, my sight was distorted, and I started sweating profusely(beads of sweat running down my face). I instantly laid on the ground in the bathroom until I was back to normal. This has only happened once though. My eyes have been sore and stinging too, when I put eye drops in my eyes go extra red.

Diabetologist,  's  Response
hello
i would first and foremost suggest you meet a live doctor
i am not sure your condition should be tackled by distance medicine

however if you have some delays in getting to a doctor
i would suggest you at least get an mri of the brain
i would like to rule an intracranial lesion

having said that i would like to tell you why i responded in this fashion
your symptoms may simply be explained by fluid and electrolyte imbalance
this could be secondary to your tummy condition
in which case plenty of fluids and electrolytes will help you

however vision disorders and sudden sweats (probably an episode of low bp) warrants getting an mri to rule out intracranial pathology, and in which case you should meet a live dr as soon as possible

finally you should get your sugars- fasting and pp- tested. there is a possibilty that you have undetected diabetes

i am sorry i could not give you a direct answer
please let me know the results of the tests suggested
and maybe i can help you further
do consider my advice of meeting a live dr, preferably a neurologist at the earliest
best of luck
