stomach tightness after only eating small amount Posted: 03-11-08 13:42pm
Hi I am a 41 yr old male I am 6' and
weight 165 lbs, the last few weeks I
noticed when I eat I get so full and my
stomach gets so tight and I get pains that
last for hours after I eat with the
tightness that feels like I am going to
pop open. The last few years I know I have
been watching what I eat more spicy stuff
gives me heartburn alot. I can't get in to
see my Dr for 2 more weeks ( I go to a
free clininc where I am unemployed and
don't have much money or any insurance for
Dr visits/test and all)
I don't won't to wait if I may have some
sort of blockage in my intestins or my
stomach, or pollops or even some type of
cancer, My dad had ulcers & pollops
when he was younger ( had to have half his
stomach removed when he was my age) . I
also the last few days get pain under both
sides of my ribs.
I have read on the internet places where
I might need to do the "Colon Cleaning"
thing, so I have been eating less and
drinking apple/prune juice, more fiber and
detox teas, and activia yogurt to add
good bacteria in my stomach, and keep me
regular which I have not been lately. The
tightness seems to be getting worse the
last few days, even with doing the
cleaning (cleaning me out) thing so far.,
I can only eat just real small amounts and
I start feeling tightness/pain/fullness
some morning when I first get up and get
started I already feel that way before
even eating anything...I do eat a banana
each day as a while back I went to the ER
because they said my potassium was real
low and I was passing out/ and was losing
feeling in my hands and feet, and
hyperventaliting (not happened in a while
tho)
Any ideals what this could be I really
don't want to wait too long before able to
find out what this is in case i have major
problems I need to get taken care of
