What Causes A Bloated Feeling In The Stomach?

Ok, I have had a wierd intestinal girgle and have felt yucky for three days. No diahrea or vomiting. It seems like a different kind of virus than I have had before. Ive been a little bloated even though I'm eating very little. I'm 41 year old female. I'm 5 feet tall and weigh 104. Any ideas?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Having intestinal gurgling and feeling yucky for three days can be a mild form of gastroenteritis.
This can be diagnosed by the following ways:
Get stool and blood tested.
Get a course of a PPI like Pantoprazole, Domperidone and symptomatic treatment with activated charcoal, antacids.
A course of an antibiotic and metronidazole if there is an evidence of intestinal infection.
Take only boiled and cooled water; homemade food.
In cases of mild forms there may not be any obvious diarrhea or vomiting. Even a viral stomach infection can cause such symptoms.
Take plenty of oral fluids and take a bed rest to have an early recovery.
