Bigger belly and dizziness

Hi

I'm currently suffering from what seems like permanent dizziness and I appear to be getting fatter!

2-3 weeks ago I noticed I was feeling bloated quite regularly and finding it hard to finish a meal.

1 week ago I started feeling dizzy after eating

5 days ago the dizziness became permanent and remains

I've noticed I am getting bigger/fatter around the stomach in quite a short space of times. I put it down to bloat but it's also affecting the pubic region below my stomach and to push it, it feels squidgy like fat. I've always been quite slim until 2 weeks ago but yesterday I actually changed my t-shirt as my belly was sticking out sad I'm actually quite alarmed at how quickly I've gained a belly. I haven't gained any weight in that time though, it's staying constant. What's the connection between permanent dizziness and getting fatter but no weight gain?

    Any reply to this? I've been having the same problem. All of my previous skirts won't fit in just 3-5 months time.
