Suggest Cure For Constipation & Eating Disorder

Hi can you tell me why when I eat or drink, my stomach, lower abdoman, my whole belly gets really distended looking like I am 9 months pregnant sometimes. I have had past eating disorders, but have pretty much overcome it, have done some stupid things like overdosing on tylenol and poatassium a few times and i am on a few antidepressants and sleepers at night, but don't think it could contribute to my problem. I'm 32, 5'6" and weigh 115lbs, but sometimes can fluctuate to a 122 lbs in a day, and think I am just getting fat, but then comes back down when I fast. I don't feel any pain, but everything just swells up. I don't have any diahrea and only occasional constipation. I eat a healthy vegetarian diet and exercise regulary. I was just wondering if anything could be wrong with me. Thanks for any advice.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to bloating.

There are several reasons for bloating such as food that you consume, stress and anxiety.

I suggest you use simethicone medication daily.

I also recommend drinking liquids.

Limit your intake of carbonated drinks.

Avoid foods that cause gas, such as vegetables.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
