What Causes Bloating Of Stomach After Eating With History Of Having IBS And Acid Reflux?

I feel fine before I eat, but lately I get really bloated after eating. I have been had IBS and reflux for sometime, but it has been under control. I lost weight a year or so ago, I was working at the time. But last March my husband was in a serious accident, and I have been his caregiver since. Now I have gained weight again because I m not getting the excerise I once was while I was working. But it has just been the last week or so that I have been bloated and also constipated.

Anesthesiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms are due to IBS. The following are my suggestions:
1) Take frequent small meals
2) Don't have large amount of food at once
3) Avoid foods that cause bloating such as peas and lentils, broccoli, onion, garlic and dairy products
4) Take more fiber containing foods like cucumber, nuts
5) Tab. Rabeprazole with domperidone combination to be taken once daily before food
6) Start exercising daily for at least 45 mins and 5 days a week
7) Syrup Looz once daily before bedtime will reduce constipation

If your symptoms don't come down even after the above treatment for 5 days, you may need to consult a gastroenterology specialist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
