bloating after eating = IBS ? Posted: 12-30-07 04:02am
Everytime I drink carbonated drinks, I get
very bloated. It's embarrassing and it
forces me to wear big baggy sweatshirts
all the time. Since I've realized that it
was drinks like soda, I've stopped
drinking them.
But then I realized, I got bloated from
other foods too. I can't even think of
what I can or cannot eat because it
happens spontaneously. And it's been
happening since I was about nine. I'm 16
now...Do the math.
And it happens every week at least three
times. I've gotten so used to it though.
But it's still annoying, especially if I'm
with my friends.
Lately, I just don't eat at all. It hasn't
happened in a week, but that means I'm not
consuming proper nutrients and all that
good stuff. I've been eating one meal a
day for the past seven days...That's not
healthy. But I don't know what else to do.
Do you think these are symptoms of IBS? Or
another condition?
HELP. PLEASE.

Yeah, that's what it is. But I'm wondering
why it happens after almost eating
ANYTHING.
I also have other symptoms of IBS (periods
of constipation then diareaha, etc.). And
it's been happening since I was young.
IDK, I wanna second opinion before I talk
to my mom about it and go the doctors.

Sometimes bread and pasta make me bloated.
Do you eat lots of these kinds of foods?
