Detailed Answer:
Hi Judithds,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.

Although,this much clinical history does not indicate the severe nature of the illness,it doesn't rule out either.Numbness and tingling in feet,which is spreading means she should go urgently to ER and must get herself physically examined by a physician or a neurologist.Feeling of swelling in legs is probably a part of the same pathology.
Stomach bloating is likely unrelated.It is probably dyspepsia.She should take some pantoprazole-domperidone combination for the same, for now.PLEASE TAKE MEDICINES UNDER A PHYSICIAN'S GUIDANCE.

She should soon visit ER for a physical examination.

Hope I have answered your query.If you have some follow-up questions,I shall be glad to answer else,please close the thread,rate it and write a review.
