Does anyone?

know what this means? I have been experiencing this for about a month now. I have an extended stomach and it hurts in my back. Sometimes, I have to lie down and then I seem to burp, or whatnot. I thought maybe this was Asthma related since I was just diagnosed with Asthma. I am in between General Care doctors right now and for reasons I don't want to go to the one I currently have. It will go away while I sleep, but then within an hour of getting up it comes back. Could this be acid reflux? Thanks for your answers.

Also, my stomach gets hard and it feels like I'm pregnant (no, I'm not, no chance in hell LOL!)

Yup, it is acid reflux. Here is a simple solution that works very nicely. About 3 tablespoons of lemon juice in a glass of water daily.

It brings the acids in your stomach back into balance and the burning miserable stomach will clear up.

If a person takes a lot of acid reducers like tums or pepcid or any stomach settling drugs, it throws the acids out of balance.

The lemon brings it back into balance. I have no Idea why except that it is apparently a good acid and the stomach is out of balance with bad balance of the acids.

It is simple and almost free so give it a try. I use real lemon.

Try drinking a glass of prune juice one day to get your bowels moving and help clear up the whole problem. If your bowels aren't moving regularly that can be a big part of the "back up".

My friend has something similar. When she's stressed her stomach gets big like a pregnant belly and becomes very hard. It gives her a lot of pain and and she lies on her her stomach to make it feel better.

Doctors do not know what is causing it.
