Have never seen student like this and concerned about starting his g tube feeding , cannot get a hold of mother right now. So we are just holding off on his afternoon feed at school right now.

Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, he can be started on motility agents like Domperidone or Itopride. If bloating persists a gastroenterologist review may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
