Stomach Bloating

[Preet651]

Hello

I have being suffering from stomach bloating for a year now. I also suffer from chronic constipation. It has gotten worse with time. I know I am allergic to yeast mold in bread so I don't eat any bread product. My primary care doctor told me to change my diet, which I changed it to organic foods. I eat mostly fruit, fiber vegatbles, and dairy product such as yogurt to help me with my constipation problems. I also avoid bloating related foods such as beans and caffeine. Bloating could be related to constipation, but every since I changed by diet to high fiber, my bloating and hard stomach has not gone away at all. After I eat, my stomach hurts and extends. Even when I don;t eat, my bloating stomach sticks out and looks preganant, which I am not. I have taken every possible measure to relief bloating, uncomfortable, and painful feeling in my stomach. I eat 3 healthy meals a day- 2 snacks which are fruits. I don't know what else to do anymore? Help please!

i also suffer from chronic constipation.  Actually, diagnosed with colonic inertia a couple of weeks ago.  They also did upper scope and gastric emptying study and found that I have a lazy/slow digesting stomach.  This is the cause for the bloating.  Whether or not I eat.  I also look like i am pregnant.  My husband calls me a chia pet because it will just start growing at times.  Doc put me on domperidone, experimental drug for the stomach.  Supposed to "jump start" digestion.  Have been on it a week and no change at all.  Today actually worse than the last couple of weeks and I only ate a banana for lunch.  Might mention this to your doctor.  Other than that, they are still running me through tests so I cant give any more guidance.  Good luck.
