Brief Answer:
Entrapment of gas in abdomen

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.Please do tell when did you get the laparoscopy done, as recent laparoscopy surgery will cause such problems for few weeks due to entrapment of the carbon dioxide gas ( used in laparoscopy) in abdomen.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back with the information, if feasible.
Wishing you good health.

Brief Answer:
Laparoscopy unlikely cause

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, if the laparoscopy was done 2 years ago, then it is unlikely to be the cause of the problems you are having.
I would suggest you to get a CT scan done to assess the cause of the discomfort in the abdomen and lungs.
For bloating, you can take pantoprazole tablets.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
