I Experiencing Bloated After I Eat A Few Spoonfuls Of Food. Does This Sound Like Acid Reflux Or Gas That Could Be Backed Up ?
after a colonpscy two and half weeks ago i started experiencing the feeling of being full and bloated after i eat a few spoonfuls of food. Out of three meals i would say theis may happen twice a day. It almost makes me feel as though i m not breathing right like i get a feeling of being full and stuffed. I take gas x after my meals and it goes away slowly but surely. I was wondering does this sound like acid reflux or gas that could be backed up ?

Your symptoms are indicative of "gas" or distension of the stomach or intestines, rather than reflux. In the latter, one typically experiences "heartburn", a sensation of burning behind the chest bone, or regurgitation of water or food into the mouth.
A medicine from the group called prokinetics, usually help. You could consult your GP. They come in various names depending on the country that you stay in.If it persists, he might suggest getting an ultrasound or UGI endoscopy done too.
