Suggest Remedy For Recurring Bloated Stomach
Hi, I have had a bloated stomach to the point I look a few months pregnant. I also have had an increased appetite. I am also a type one diabetic, which is not well controlled and considered a brittle diabetic. I was in the hospital last week for vomiting. The hospital did a catscan and said everything looked ok and my blood work came back fine. I received three bags of fluid and nausea medicine and the vomiting stopped. My stomach is somewhat hard like a pregnancy but definitely not pregnant. I have had some shortness of breath.

Dear- diabetic patients have a lower movement of the intestines and slower digestion, creating bloating of the abdomen. Some foods as broccoli,cauliflower and lettuce can give you this feeling. Lactose intolerance or gluthen can also produce that. I recommend you to identify what gives you bloating and avoid it.You can try intestinal enzymes to see if helps.Gluten free and lactose free diet will help.
