My stomach is round and bloated, and it makes me look pregnant

Oh gosh, finding someone that had/has chilaiditi is hard! The bloating is horrid, I’m having Hiatal hernia surgery and they will also move my colon. Wish I could talk to someone that had surgery for this to hear their experience.

Hi, @munga - what I would suggest related to the topic of chilaiditi would be to go to the Digestive Health Support Group https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/digestive-gastrointestinal-problems/ and start a discussion there (see right below the search box). That would be great to try to connect people with this condition.
If you'd like to chat with others who have had or will have hiatal hernia surgery, please check out this discussion:
