Definately related to fibro. I also take meds for GERD but sometimes when I get really stressed, whichbrings gall bladder like pain I take Simethicone for extra relief. Best route is to avoid stress, haha!
I get the same bloating symptoms with my IBS, I also have horrendous reflux because of a Hiatus Hernia, so I also take a similar medication to #StuartWalczakGillies
My bloating can take place before I finished a meal so I'd investigate the IBS route if you haven't already been diagnosed ...it's very common with Spoonies and is listed as one of the Fibro symptoms ๐
Hi Andy. I take omiprazole foe the indigestion. I do feel bloated a lot. I got some lactose and senokot to help relieve the bloating and constipation. After a fee days I realised that I can't take the lactose also had to change to semi skimmed milk. Dairy products seem toake the bloating worse
If you don't get relief soon, please consult your physician. It's possible you have a hernia (hiatal, I believe). My doctor thinks I may have one but need a test done to confirm it. Gentle hugs and brightest blessings to you, always.
Yes I get bloated feeling I'm taking an acid reducer
