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?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
