Hello,

my name is Kim. I am having a problem recently with my stomach. It actually started last night, but i think i had this condition for awhile now. Well whenever i eat even light foods, i have been getting severely bloated ecpecially right under my ribs. last nite we went out to eat, but before i even got there i was starting to bloat, and i couldn't understand it because all i ate that day was 2 english muffin and maybe a hand full of chip, because i knew we were going to eat. So i couldn't understand why i was bloating up then. So going on with the story, when i got home after eating out, i was in severe discomfort right under my ribcage, it was like my stomach was right under my ribs, it was painful, bloating, i had a hard time breathing and i could not get comfortable. Now i didn't have gas nor was i burping. i tried to lay down and all of a sudden i got really sick, i threw up and it didn't even help. 20 minutes later i threw up again and the pain subsided. i didn't want to eat the next day but i tried, for fear it was going to happen again. i ate very little today, and i am bloated again. another thing when my belly growls, when i am hungry, it feels like it is growling right under my ribs. i have hypothyroidism i am on medication, but i have not taken it for about 3 weeks now, because of the simple fact is i don't have insurance. can you please give me some answers. i feel like i am bloated all the time, i don't go to the 'bathroom' very often either, but i have always been that way.
