Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
The belching after having spicy food could be due to gastroesophageal reflux disease.
A course of Nexium would provide relief.
She also needs to check her blood glucose levels as the bloating could be either due to gastroparesis. It could be due to increased gas also and so she has to avoid pulses and other gas forming food items like beans, cabbage etc.
