Severe Bloating and Distention: How did you find relief?
Digestive Health | Last Active: Apr 29, 2023 | Replies (206)Comment receiving replies
I'm also having problems with Severe Bloating and Distention and with me I also am nauseous all the time and I'm so tired of giving my Dr all my symptoms and she just dismiss them. I've been trying to get her to understand the pain and discomfort I'm in day and night. I have had tests done to diagnose me with small fiber neuropathy and that's as far as it's gone. If anyone can help me out with where to go now I would be so grateful.

My GI doctor gave up on me and said there was nothing else she could do. I tried U of M but didn't get very far when I decided to go to Mayo. I have an appointment tomorrow and hoping for a diagnosis and a treatment plan. I'm sure I will have to have more tests done but that is okay if I can get some answers. I'm not familiar with small fiber neuropathy. Do you know what the treatment is for it? I wish you good luck with finding the right GI doctor for you.

Go to a GI specialist. Research and read reviews about the doctors. You may have to go to more than one. You'll know when you find the right doctor. You want someone that listens. You can tell they listen because they'll ask you questions and explain things. A little side bar, the surgeon I found most times I and everyone else has to wait 45 min to an hour in the waiting room. Some go up and complain. Not me because I know how much he listens and explains the what's and why's. I'm willing to wait for the great care. If he's forced to rush with someone else he'll probably rush with me and I don't want that. Research and find the right doctor. We have the power of the internet. Good luck.
