Hi,
I am sorry for the situation you are in.
Having bloating immediately after eating can be eased by :
- continue taking domperidone
- run upper endoscopy to exclude gastritis /GERD
- run abdominal ultrasound to exclude biliary issues
- stool culture us advised to exclude candida infection
- eat often, small portions and chew up slowly
- avoid foods that would cause bloating (beans, etc)
All the best!
