I don't know about indigestion and too much gas CAUSING low blood pressure and dizziness, but I know my digestion problems (bacterial imbalance in my gut due to antibiotics) have caused indigestion, too much gas and these symptoms were ACCOMPANIED BY low blood pressure and dizziness.

Have you lost weight ? Due to your stomach problems ? I get dizzy often and my b/p is effected as well.

That's interesting about the bp.  I have been having digestive problems recently.  Reflux, gas, RUQ pain, cramps among other things.
I had upper gi and a endoscopy recently.  Today I had a colonoscopy.  Everything has been normal so far.  I have noticed recently that when I had my bp checked such as when I was getting tests done it has been significantly lower than it used to be.  I have been taking medication to keep it controlled. When I had it checked last week it was 115/70 one time and 110/65 another time.When it was checked today it was 110/70 before the colonoscopy and after as I was resting in the recovery room it was 105/59.  Coincedence?

Really interesting.  I have struggled with chronic nausea for years (since my appendix ruptured)and recently things have gotten much worse.  Last two times I was in ER my bp was very, very low -- at one time it was 72/31 and they were concerned because it didn't want to get higher, but you know how it goes, they just keep taking it and taking it and shifting your position and re-taking it until it comes out higher (which for me was in the 90s/60s.)
