I have had gastro problems for a long time, but they "flared up" six months ago when I had shoulder surgery, and I was given a lot of antibiotics. I went to a Gastro Dr. who ordered a cat-scan which showed "no major obstructions", but the thinning of the abdominal wall, which was leading to stomach distension and the bloating I have been having. Unfortunately, the Gastro Dr. simply said there were no easy fixes, and has
offered no other help. I have had some relief from the bloating symptoms (from watching youtube video articles), but doing things like: 1. Chewing my food until it dissolves in the mouth, before swallowing, 2. Take a apple cider vinegar pill before I eat, and a bile salt pill after I eat, (I have no gallbladder), 3. Drink a cup of bone broth during the day I still hope to find some help for the abdominal wall thinning. I have an appointment 5/17 with a Nurse Practitioner at UTSW gastro department.
