What Causes Abdominal Distention And Shortness Of Breath After Eating?
I am having a sudden change in ability to eat normally. I feel distended easily, feel SOB at times after eating. I quite often feel extremely distended after eating. I constantly belch frequently for hours after eating. This has been going on for months now. I have changed jobs and now have a desk job, not used to sitting.
