Hello. I am a 48-year-old Caucasian male. Recently I have been experiencing a recurring problem with BLOATING!!! I am not constipated. I do not have an excessive amount of gas. I do still have a healthy appetite. But when I sit down to eat--and just have a couple of bites of food--immediately I experience the ENORMOUS DISCOMFORT of EXCESSIVE BLOATING!! It, for the most part, does NOT appear as a PHYSICAL SYMPTOM. Just as this huge DISCOMFORT. As I said--this is really the only symptom/manifestation of what is going on...?? and for the most part...I am still LARGELY HUNGRY....!!!!??? But when I go to eat, this BLOATING feeling comes into effect.... As of now--I have no Doc and no insurance but definitely am trying to make this happen....Without seeing me....Do you, by any chance, have any "Informed guesses" as to what this might be????
