Patient's question:
Doctor, after having the uterus removed in March of this year, I've been experiencing gastrointestinal discomfort. A gastroscopy revealed chronic gastritis. However, I've been dealing with long-term abdominal bloating, even when not eating, and it persists even with minimal food intake. I've been mindful of my diet and have lost a lot of weight—going from over 100 pounds to around 80 pounds. I haven't stopped taking medication, and I've tried both Western and Chinese remedies, but none have been effective. Please help me, doctor!Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, you generally have a regular lifestyle, a positive mood, and avoid smoking and drinking. Do not overeat or have irregular eating habits. Eat small meals frequently and avoid foods that are difficult to digest or highly stimulating, such as coffee and spicy foods. For those with stomach discomfort, bloating, acid reflux, and belching, it is recommended to take Domperidone or Motilium half an hour before meals.
