Hello,
Regarding your concern and would recommend going to the ER for a physical exam and a brain CT scan. I don't think that the face numbness is related to the stomach, but it could indicate a possible stroke.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
