Lemon soda, antacids, simethicone to try. .

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I am sorry for the situation you are in.

Having bloating might be a sign of :
- consuming foods that cause gas
- stomach issues: gastritis / GERD
- alteration of intestinal flora due to antibiotics used recently

To ease bloating, I advise to :
- eat often and small portions
- avoid foods that would trigger bloating (beans, potatoes, etc)
- eat natural yogurt
- take simethicone
- take probiotics to regulate intestinal flora
- if you are also having constipation , take lactulose and laxatives to ease bowel movements
- increase water intake
- if you have heartburn too, advise to take antacids
- lemon soda can also have

Hope it was of help!
