swollen stomach

[navigator1979]

My sister has a swollen stomach and she went to the doctor and the doctor told her that she has some kind of balloon in her stomach and therefore cant operate on her cause her blood is too thin where she could have a blood clot and die.  Now from what i know the doctors didnt tell her what exactly the sympton in her stomach is but would be glad if someone can help me b4 it is too late.  Her stomach is swelled up like she is 9 months pregnant and she has a hard time breathing plus her legs swell up.

what happened? ......i know someone with very similar symptoms and i don't know what to do

Please see the ER right away........how old is your sister???   You didn't elaborate on the condition.
A hard time breathing sounds like it could be a hiatal hernia and is blocking her stomach, strangulating her stomach, and the legs swelling up sounds like a heart condition, so please go to the ER and don't fool around with that.  I had gallbladder problem 2 years ago and had surgery and my stomach used to swell up like that all the time, like it was 9 months pregnant, so don't fool around, it could be several things, just go to the ER and let them get to the bottom of it once and for all.
