I again am having horrible stomach pains and I look like I did 7 months pregnant again. I had this problem with pain once my family doc said constapation. But I know this is not it (I also have SLE lupus diagnosis June 5 20018 symptoms started February 2018) has any one had this problem?

I’ve tried every diet there is, I’ve eliminated gluten, dairy, sugar, you name it, nothing makes a difference 😓

Perhaps a problem with dairy or gluten could be causing the bloating and pain.

Well there are nerves connected to digestion, the Vagus nerve. I think MS affects that.

Yes! Often, have you ever been checked for a hernia? Or have you ever had any type of stomach surgery that required mesh? I’m 46 with the same problem. I can’t even wear jeans or anything tight around my stomach it hurts so bad.
