Stomach ache/loss of appetite?

Question

This has been going on for a few days now.... everytime I eat, my stomach starts to hurt or gets worse if I eat later in the day. Nothing sounds good, and I've been avoiding food because of this. Also, whenever I stand up, my head almost feels light headed, as if stuff is I guess rushing to my head if that makes sense. I don't drink or smoke anything of any form, so please don't respond with I'm feeling high or whatever. This is really starting to bug me. Anyone know what this couls be, and what to do about it?

Answer 1

I've had some similar problems as well as abdominal pain accompanying it. I had to go to a gastroenterologist to sort out the problem. if your female, it also migth have to do with your hormones, i notice the closer to my cycle time, the less and less i want to eat. the light headedness is called orthostatichypotension, basically in laymans terms, its caused by a slight drop in blood pressure when you stand up, sometimes it can get worse when your not eating as much as usual. don't avoid food on any grounds because that can cause a major nutritional vitamin/mineral deficiency as well as throw off your electrolytes. I recommend you talk to your primary care physician about your symptoms and see if they think you should see a gastroenterologist, good luck.
