I have been having these awful stomach symptoms for over a year now. I will am severely bloated around my ribs after eating a small meal. I constantly burp and my stomach constantly hurts. Sometimes I feel a shortness of breath and have heart palpitations. I have lost a lot of weight because I hate eating due to the pain. What could this be?
