Tummy Cramps, Sickness, Shakes, Blurred Vision. Stressing Out. What Can I Do?

I had my breakfast this morning, lunch at lunch time then a snack...about 20mins ago I got bad tummy cramps , sicky feeling, shakes and blurred vision . I get this feeling often, it usually feels like I m about to pass out but if I dive for the chocolate/lucozade quick enough it usually passes off within 10minutes. It s clearly not hunger as I m eating plenty. I have noticed that recently I m not sleeping as well I should be; I struggle to sleep but once I m asleep I can t get up..I have to set 5 alarms in the morning for work and am late regularly. It s all just stressing me out. What s up with me?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi there ~ symptoms such as yours i.e. eating something and subsequently having cramps, having a sickly feel, shakiness and blurred vision seem to me like they are related to a gastrointestinal condition. Feeling of passing out or passing out after food also needs medical attention. I suggest that you see a gastrointestinal (GI) physician. However, if it is stress and you need to elaborate on the kind of stress please feel free to do so here, I may have answers for you. Alternatively, speak with a psychiatrist or psychologist about your stressors. I hope this helps. Take care and have a good day !
