You need to be evaluated for the cause of the swelling of the feet and the stomach upset.Your PCP,can examine you and investigate you to determine the cause of the oedema feet and other symptoms.You can also discuss the delayed periods with him.Anaemia,urinary tract infection,liver and renal disease need to be ruled out.
