Bad ground I had the same thing and I finally found a bad ground
I would suggest trying to retrieve codes, this would really help at least point to where the problem may be. I have seen several trailblazer come in for this same problem and the most common issues I have found are a bad crank position sensor and issues with anti theft. Both give you similar symptoms but will set different codes.
I would begin by looking at the fuses. Check for one labeled ECM or PCM... Those are the computers that control engine management. There are also fuses for the coil packs and fuel injectors.

try changing the air filter ,i had a problem ,at ilde in drive my trailblazer would stall, changed the air filter now it's not stalling and got my power back ,there is a secondary air pump that i have to change ,
not sure were it is ? still not running perfect but it's running better .and my service light is on too.
i got it put on scope ,it's the pump .
not sure if this helps ,but i'm start to run in to problems too,i have a 2004 trailblazer.
i like to do fix things myself ,i hope i can.it's the cost if you know what i mean.

Do you know if the plugs were changed, a bad or broken plug will also cause rough idle and slow acceleration?

SOURCE: 2002 chevy trailblazer has rough idle
There are numerous things that can caise a vehicle to idle rough. Could be a throttle posistioning sensor. pcv valve, dirty fuel filter, worn spark plugs and wires, possible O2 sensor. If the vehicle has not had a tune up yet, I would recomend one. Even if it doesn't fix your issue, the vehicle is ten years old and probably needs on anyways. Start there, then rule out the cheaper stuff next. pcv valve and fuel filter, inexpensive and it's probably time anyways. If you are getting an engine code, stop in to advance auto. They'll plug it in for free. If your still having problems, you may have to break down and tajke it to a mechanic to get plugged into a real diagnostics machine.(probably run you around $100)
