What Causes Bloating Of Abdomen Along With Difficulty In Breathing?

Hello
I am usually in amazing shape, but over xmas: stress, moving boxes & items over about 100 flights of concrete stairs.. and poor eating: my uppder abdomen has been swollen for about 2 weeks and my lower one too. And now my ankles are swelling. My stools are suddenly light color and small or almost sharp edges. I have a mild difficulty breathing now and then with the swollen upper abdomen, just from pressure on my diaphragm. I am 54, in "elite" condition, but have not been working out this last few months due to stress.... I have not been to a doctor yet as I don't want to suddenly be dosed with antibiotics. I have been eating very small amounts now and eating really well, but feel full almost immediately...with mild indigestion and a small cough I never had that happens every time I eat.....augh, I hate getting old!
