    I am being tested and getting Endoscopy to confirm gastritis or rule out end of this month. I have had such pain and trapped gas with bloating non stop for 2 1/2 months now. Can't eat or drink water. On aciphex now but if I don't eat tiny meals every two hours exactly, the gurgling, pain and bloating gets unbearable. Lost lots of weight.

    I have ibs and had gallbladder removed and so sick. Don't know what causes all the bloating but it is horrible.

    It may be what you are eating. Suggest you consult a certified dietition or nutritionist for a proper diet. In the meantime Simethicone anti-gas tablets available over the counter will help.
