[quote=Anonymous]For the past 2 months (yes I know, I'm awful but I'm in a foreign country where I don't speak the language well so really don't want to go to the doctor), almost every time I eat, I get uncomfortably bloated.  It first started when I came back in February (I was home in the states for 3 months over the holidays) as having some stomach issues, cramps, and very loose stools.  Thought maybe my body was just adjusting to the different food down here.  Now it has gotten progressively worse to the point that after I eat, I can't sit comfortably because I'm so bloated.  It is noticeable both in appearance and also in how I feel.  Stool is about the same although don't have as much cramps as usual.  I also have heartburn/acid reflux from time to time.

I've noticed it happens after eating lunch and dinner, because my breakfast just consists of coffee and fruit or yogurt.  I'm not overeating, so the bloating isn't caused by that.   I return to the states permanently and a couple of weeks and will get a work up when I go back, but trying to prepare myself for anything it might be.

Anyone had something like this?  DH says I should get tested for celiac but I'm not sure if my case is that severe.

Anyways, just thought I'd put it out there and see if anyone had suggestions.  [/quote]
