Non-stop Bloating

I'm a 22 year old male.. I work up two weeks ago and found my stomach so bloated i could barely get out of bed... i've went to the E.R and they have done a CT Xray and palpated my stomach.. ran blood tests urine tests and found nothing.. They said i was constipated, but i have no stool... I don't understand.   I was put on laxitives two weeks prior to going ot the E.R.  My stomach looks like i'm pregnant and it does not hurt just very uncomfortable..  A little pain in my lower back.   I'm very worried ... I don't have insurance for 2 more months and I don't know what to do.. Every GI Doctor has turned me down and my stomach is starting to get bigger to where i can't even do my exercises...  Does anyone know where i can go to get help.. The E.R doctors keeps telling me it's gas but i know i'ts not gas... My body is telling me something..

Could it be what you are eating?  My husband gets very bloated and uncomfortable when he eats peanuts (even chips which have been fried in peanut oil), beer, yeast (bread), greasy foods and dairy.  Sometimes gluten can cause issues too.  Try keeping a food diary and adjusting your diet to see if you can get some relief.
