A CT would normally show ascites. What did they tell you when they discharged you? Other less serious conditions, such as IBS, can also cause a swollen tummy.

They found 2 kidney stones.I knew I had 1 because I have surgery on the 15.They didn't really say anything about the swollen stomach

I agree with Nash1996. I have IBS-C, my stomach gets pretty hard at times and I get bowel cramps. Doctors say that the bowel is having spasms. However, since changing my diet due to liver I have not had as much problems even with constipation and gas or reflux. Gas can puff you up pretty good it can make you think you are having a heart attack too with gas pains. I take GasX, try 2 at first. Helps organize the gas and expel.
