Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that you could be having acid peptic disease that is leading to bloating after meals. I will advise you to get Liver function tests done , A USG abdomen done to rule out any other pathology . Till then avoid fatty spicy meals and caffeine . You can take pantaprazole 40 mg half an hour before meals once daily when required after consulting your treating doctor . Also get H. pylori testing done .

Take care.

Dr. Shruti
