Massive Bloating everyday, all day.



Recommended Posts

Hey,

I'm a veteran bandster, but this issue has been looming over my head.

I have this problem almost every day, and I'm really embarassed that I have this highly annoying, life disrupting, severely uncomfortable predicament. I was hoping you guys had a clue what's going on, or can pinpoint what I'm doing to cause it is interferingwith my life. I have severe bloating in my abdomin. Here's my day...

I wake up, make coffee (nothing different there) and sit down and watch the news. Suddenly my stomach will bloat to the extent that I look and feel pregnant. I lounge in my shorts. My abdomin really hurts and since it's bloated, it needs room. So I have top pull my shorts under the fat on my hanging abdomen and set loose this monster of a tummy. Or pull the shorts up to my chest, Sometimes it works, sometimes it's non-existent. It hurts right now.

I have not noticed any changes in my diet. Maybe I'm just feeling common bloating, but does it usually happen every day?

And so bad? This is a new problem, a few months.

fellow experience/knowledge/advice/and just gentle kindness is what I need.

I will gently say you should see your surgeon or family doctor. That doesn't sound normal and while there may be an obvious solution I cannot figure out why it's happening and you cant either ...so maybe it's time for you to get checked out to make sure nothing serious is going on.... Best wishes.

How's the bowel movements going? Could be the back end causing the bloating?

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
