What Causes Abdominal Bloating Anlong With Constipation?
My husband is experiencing bloating, constipation, to the point he is not eating and drinking very little. He had triple bypass on August 8th. The heart surgery went beautifully but this constipation, bloating and not desire to eat has been his upset since a week after the surgery. We have been to the emergency room three times with CAT spans, etc. They can find nothing. Help.

Hell,
I think he may need to use lactulose as a laxative or sena leaves. He needs to keep a fiber-rich diet and drink lots of water and fluids. Also, he may need antibiotics to reestablish the intestinal flora.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
