Lately I’ve been having heartburn and problems with the stomach. I feel like it is distended all the time. It is usually in the morning but after I eat it is even worse. The truth is that I am not really careful what I eat, but it was always like that. I haven’t change eating habits suddenly. I would like to know what can cause my stomach to be distended. I ask my mom and she said like:” I don’t know”….yes, only that!
I also suffer from distended stomach. I have similar problems like you do. I thought that it is just temporary but then I read somewhere that the longer that the stomach has been twisted before treatment is provided, the greater the risk that the stomach will die. That scared me so I went to see a doctor. It was really fast and painless check, but uncomfortable. He said that is peptic ulcer. I had to lose some weight and I got therapy for ulcer. You have to see doctor as soon as you can. It is dangerous to wait.
