Does anyone feel bloated after eating and even before eating?
It happens suddenly May last several hours.

@sciscented, I have felt bloated after eating a little and wondered why since I know I didn't eat that much but it doesn't happen often and I didn't put too much thought into it. Here is some information I found that may explain it a little.

Do you have any pain, cramps or gas that goes along with feeling bloated?

Hi John
Thanks for reaching out.
I don’t have pain or very little gasses. I just feel extremely bloated. I’m taking B complex vitamins daily so this is probably why I feel so uncomfortable.
The neurologist told me to take these vitamins to strengthen my muscles.

I have felt bloated a lot. I didn't know that it could be a problem related to PN. Are there other symptoms associated with the lower GI tract.
