I am a 50 year old male in fair health and over the last year or so I have been suffering from extreme abdominal bloating. It is so bad that it causes me to be very uncomfortable and people have commented to me that the bloating just looks abnormal. The bloating can happen at any time, before or after a meal or if I have not ate anything at all. This bloating was happening a year ago when they took out my gall bladder. I thought the bloating would end, but it has not. I am not overweight. Does anybody have an answer to this? cause the doctors sure in the don't.
