Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
To recapitulate: Female/47 - constant bloating with gas - stomach is always churning - frequent urination on drinking water ...
Please give some additional information for me to assist you better:
Since when has these problems started?
Any other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, loose stools or hard stools that are difficult to pass?
Any other urinary symptoms like burning, pain in lower or other sites in abdomen?
Any investigations done?
Any medications?
Are you nearing menopause and flushing, feeling hot and cold or any other symptoms?
Any stress and/or anxiety?
Awaiting for your details.
As detailed below.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your partial feedback.
From the history your have provided, your symptoms are suggestive to be due to anxiety and/or stress or perimenopausal problems unless proved otherwise.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Consult another Doctor for second opinion, discuss these points and get basic investigations of blood, stool and urine along with X-ray of abdomen and ultrasound of abdomen. These along with clinical evaluation will give the most probable diagnosis.
If anything specific is found during the course of investigations, you will get a specific treatment.
If all the tests are normal treatment of anxiety/stress and so on will help you to recover fully.

Detailed Answer:
Can be.
If there is anxiety and stress, there can be resultant aerophagia that can cause more gases. More gases cause more peristalsis and since there is more air, you can feel churning.
But as a precaustion, all the relevant tests better be done to see that they are normal.
Most welcome
