misunderstood

700d

hello all weird question but quite serious to me. the last few months I have been suffering with massive bloat. so much that you can knock on it like a door. it's quite painful and icky in my stomach. I went to er cpl days ago and they took xrays to find I have a large amount of bowels, however was sent home. I went and got magnesium citrate and drank it that night. the next day I had 8 bowel movements of diareaha. not alot of bulk. so waited one day bought another bottle drank it. one hr later I threw all of it up. now my stomach is really gross. has anyone had this problem??? and what else can be done ?? this bloating is unreal, uncomfortable, and I'm at my whits end! please help...thanks in advance.

      You need to see a gastroenterologist. You may need an Endoscopy to see what is going on in your stomach and esophagus. Could be inflammation, gastritis. They will check you for H Pylori. Ulcer. It’s not a big deal and you need to watch your diet and see what is the culprit. Maybe you are lactose intolerant, cut out milk products ice cream, cheese to see if it gets better. No soda or seltzer. No caffeine have decaf coffee. No cold cuts. No artificial sweeteners no seed oils. Some veggies might do it like broccoli beans. Cabbage. Berries seem to be ok. I can eat only pecans other nuts are a problem.

      You might be retaining water. Nausea and vomiting are caused by the magnesium citrate. Make sure you see a pcp, they'll be able to do something for you. Your medicine could also be causing it.
