What Causes Abdominal Bloating Along With Insomnia?

Hello, I m worried about my mom... She complains to me all the time about how big her stomach is and that it s now going away. She has insomnia and only gets 3-6 hours of sleep each night, which I heard could be a symptom to causing her stomach. She has cellulite near her butt but other than that, without looking at her stomach she looks thin and beautiful. She semi-jokes about it and says it might be a tumor, but the symptoms do not match. This sounds crazy but I m worried that something is wrong. Thank you, Maijan del Sol

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your mother abdominal bloating with no painful episode I will suggest the following disease
Ascites (fluid in the abdomen)
Liver cancer
Pancreatic tumor
Intestinal obstruction
Paralytic ileus

In view of this let her do a CT or abdominal scan to rule out the above medical conditions and see a gastroenterologist specialist for expert management

Regarding her lack of sleep Yes definitely this is as a result of discomfort from her bloated abdomen

Let her take any of the following Tablet Nexito plus melatonin diazepam

I hope this helps Regards
