Question:
Does anyones stomach look swollen constantly especially after eating?
Everytime I eat my stomach swells and I look like i am in my first couple months of pregnancy. I do have a history of nausea and bad bloating everytime I eat but recently my stomach swells very noticably. In the morning its slighly flat until I eat. I take gas-x (barely works) gall bladder was taking out, prisolic, nexum all that. Every test has come back negative upper-lower gi, scope. I recently was told I have a cyst like on my uterus and I am wondering does that have anything to do with swelling. The pooch belly is always there its just bigger throughtout the day.
Answers:
Isn't it just lovely when they ask you when you are due? I have this problem with what turned out to be food allergies.
There could be several causes to this problem. Celiac, allergies, IBS.
If you had a scope, I am assuming they checked you for celiac (and other inflammatory bowel diseases). If you are suffering from celiac disease then the lining of the small intestine would be affected.
If you have allergies or intolerances to foods that can be tested for by an allergist and/or do a challenge diet where you remove foods from your diet and then slowly reintroduce them after awhile.
IBS would improve with diet and lifestyle changes.
You should not be suffering from these symptoms. Go back to your doctor. I don't think your cyst has anything to do with the problem but you should stay on top of that as well.
