 Posted: 03/06/07 - 20:15 Post subject: Stomach is getting abnormally large! |
  |
|
hello.
i'm an 18 year old female and i think i may have a problem.
i started getting obsessively weight conscious since the beginning of the school year because i gained the "freshman 15" . the weight never came off and i grew overly obsessed with my weight. i'm not even overweight. i'm 120 pounds which i would say was normal but anyways..
just recently, my stomach is protruding so much! the thing is, i don't even eat that much. my mother said it was because my stomach shrank but i highly doubt that my stomach could have shrank THAT fast considering that i would eat almost 2 plates of food without any discomfort but NOW two days later, i am CONSTANTLY full even with just a LITTLE food.. and i can't even drink water because my stomach is too full..
even though i don't eat THAT much .. my stomach is getting bigger!
there are some supplements that i started taking : fish oil pills, zinc, borage and primrose pills that i no longer take.
i keep stressing over my stomach and also the fact that i have acne. i cry constantly because of my acne. it has severely damaged my life and i think i may have a small form of depression.
i'm going to try and stop taking the fishoil and zinc to see what happens. the only thing is.. i was taking the zinc because i think i might have a zinc deficiency which i heard could be the cause of acne.
i'm so stressed |

Hi,
I know you posted awhile ago but your subject caught my concern of things i have dealt with in the past. I would recommend you check with your obgyn because yu could have fibroid tumors, causing your stomach to swell. You might have another gyn condition, or hormonal problems. Fibroids are generally driven by hormones. Check on food allergies also which can sometimes be caused by wheat and upset your stomach. My stomach became very large from fibroids looking like a five mo pregn. It does not sound normal that you get so full. Make sure you check with a dr.
Have you gotten any answers yet?
