Well it turns out my problem is not ascites, it's a partial bowel obstruction. One thing after another, as we all experience. They're going to try to get it to resolve on its own through liquid diet, meanwhile my stomach is like a big beachball. I sure hope it does because I don't want surgery.

@dalegantous Though I never had a partial bowel obstruction before, I am happy for you that it isn't ascites. Ascites is typically the result of a body organ or organs not functioning properly. Immediate action is usually necessary. I am crossing my fingers that the liquid diet works for you. Beachball be GONE!
