I too have the exact same problem with my stomach. It swells up and I look like I'm 9 months pregnant and even had people ask me "when is the baby due". I say to them that I'm not pregnant I have stomach problems. My stomach burns all the time, I have chronic pain. Explosive diarrhea or constipation. I vomit a lot even to vomiting up my own feces. I have been suffering with this since Dec. 2007 and have not been able to work. This coming Monday I will be having my 3rd CT Scan. I've had many ultrasounds, a Laparoscopy, Blood test and still don't know what it is. I have been on so many different pain medications. I haven't been able to go out only to Doctors appointments, car rides were so painful, that now the Doctor has put me on Morphine tablets, which I have been on for a week and feel like a new women. At lease I know there are others with this and that I'm not going crazy!!

Mine is somewhat the same. Lately i have not been eating, and i have drank a few times with friends. And even when i don't eat, my stomach gets like 6 months pregnant! And then when i do eat it gets bigger and bigger. But i have a eating disorder calle dbulimia.. Do you think it has anything to do with that?

I have the exact same problem.  I try to notice if certain foods effect my stomach and I tried to avoid them.  However, I have sometimes when it happens just when I drink water.
