Anyone else with this problem?

Hey guys for the past few weeks I’ve been waking up feeling bloated aswell as being bloated through the day, always seem to have the urge to burp, I eat usually 4-5 hours before I sleep so that’s not the cause and I don’t drink fizzy drinks, anybody else with these symptoms?

Hi..have you been experiencing a burning sensation In your chest? It sounds like it may be Acid Reflux. Does this happen at night too? Mostly it is worse at night. I used to get it so bad, it would sometimes come up my throat..and I would have to sleep with my head propped up on a pillow. After I was prescribed Prilosec, it seems to have gone away. Try to stay away from Antacids, such as Tums, Maalox, etc..as these are just short term and contain calcium which may cause constipation. Have you changed your diet when this happened? Also, I know you said you don't drink fizzy drinks..but sometimes this can be caused by starchy foods, or foods high in sugar, extra fiber intake etc. Of course, I'm no medical expert, so it may be best to have it checked out, especially since it developed quickly. I hope you get it all sorted out.

I used to have reflux but a daily loser tablet has fixed this. I do wake with bloat and sometimes bloat seems to go on for days I find by keeping my bowels regular it helps sometimes feels like a blockage happening. The only thing the dr suggested was daily half sachet of lax- sachet. If I get constipated things are not good for me and this can happen got no particular reason. Just been told it’s typical of ibs😕
