Hi the-db. As DD says the inhalers can do it. Also, if you cough a lot you can put a strain on the muscles in the stomach area.

Can cause acid reflux too.

I've been getting very bad bloating for about 4 years now since a spell in hospital where I picked up MRSA of the sputum, which makes breathing a lot more difficult (I can gain an extra 6" on waist from morning to evening).

But, whether it is directly caused by COPD, I do not know !
