What Causes Stomach Pain Along With Cold Sweats And Blurred Vision?
tonight after dinner I had stomach cramps and felt bowel pressure. While in the bathroom I continued with cramping and cold sweets and blurred vision. Also feeling faint. When I called for help, my husband helped me to the bedroom where I laid down and still did not feel well. He took my blood pressure and it was 102 which is low for me. Within a short time I was feeling somewhat ok. I recently lost 10 pounds, could by blood pressure meds be reduced What would cause this?

Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
Feeling extremely bloated or pressure over the stomach could be related to dyspepsia or acute gastritis but it needs further evaluation by clinical examination and various tests to have confirmed diagnosis.
Cold sweats and blurred vision are related to your dizziness or faintness.
If your symptoms are not so troublesome then I can suggest you some medications and dietary precautions to get relieved from crams and stomach pressure and bloating.
1) Proton pump inhibitors (pantoprazole 40 or rabeprazole 20) twice daily.
2) Take antihistamine tablets stugerone forte 75 mg (cinnarizine)for the dizziness for symptomatic relief.
3) Syrup digene 2 TSF three times a day if there is acidity.
All above drugs are available as OTC drugs.
4) Avoid hot,oily and spicy foods rather take bland diet for initial 2 to 3 days
5) Avoid eating full stomach one at a time rather take small and frequent meals.
6) Have soft diet only for next 2 to 3 days
7) Drink plenty of fluids and fruit juices with added salt since your blood pressure has got down to 102 systolic as stated by you.
I expect you to get better within 3 to 5 days but if your problem persists then i will advice you to see physician or gastro-physician who can order various tests and can come to a particular diagnosis and start the treatment.
Hope this will help you to get better.
