    Dear All

    I am 34 year old working woman. Daily routine is quite hectic, though I try & take as much breaks possible.

    Not Health food freak, but I am cautiously incorporating as much healthy foods as possible which includes sprouts, green veges & fruits.

    Lately (last 2-3 months) I have been having a lot of Indigestion issues. Sometimes I feel full almost after a small meal & suddenly after a gap feel super hungry. Generally I have a habit of eating small meals in 2-3 hours gap.

    Egg is one of the foods which after having I get this full feeling.

    Lot of burping & gasses lately although no constipation. Sometimes even a rumbling noise from the stomach, because of which I have been embarrassed on a few occasions at work. :(

    I have started Zandu Pancharishta since last 15 days, which initially I felt good, but since last 2 days again the same fullness, gassy, sometimes even nausea/feeling pukish after having meals.

    Should I visit a Gastroenterologist right away or wait & see if this is just a bad stomach patch?

    Hi @DGcreative, I don't have much knowledge to advise on this. But I would like to tell this one thing alone. Do you take coffee often?? Or even a strong cup of coffee a day?? Because I too experienced the problems like gas, burps and stomach rumblings. I have reduced my coffee intake to once in two days. And I really felt the difference.No more gas problems or rumblings. I don't know whether you too take coffee.. but just a suggestion.

    How much is your intake of tea / coffee? It interacts with our body differently as we get older. Do you have tea/coffee on empty stomach? If yes then please try to have some water empty stomach, then some fruit or breakfast and then tea / coffee. If it doesn't get better in a week, please see a doctor.

    Thanks ladies. No my tea/coffee intake is extremely limited to max 2 cups a day of either. I have only warm water 1st thing in the morning with lemon sometimes.

    @sonal1611 I have started have buttermilk with hing since last week itself. It does seem to make some difference during day time, but nights still constant gurgling sound from stomach with too much gasses. I will try ajwain.

    Will wait for another week or then visit an expert coz it is very frustrating. One moment I am super hungry & next moment feel full :crybaby2:

    Please have your meals in regular intervals without leaving big gaps. Also have you been able to identify foods which trigger this more? Like maybe when you eat raw vegetables/salad, it is more difficult to digest? If you have been having this for some time, best to see a doctor.

    Hi, I exactly had the same type of problem and I ignored it for 3-4 years thinking that it is my body nature. One day for some other reason I had to visit doctor and he did Endoscopy on me. And this showed that I have stomach infection which causes all the above things. So they put me on a 10 day antibiotic diet which I am taking right now and believe me it is horrible as hell the tablets I mean. But, this happened with my friends as well and their stomach cleared of all impurities and are feeling much much better. I am hoping it will happen the same with me, otherwise I always looked like a pregnant lady with a bloated belly all these days. Better get it checked. I heard that it is very common among Indians and generally we ignore thinking it as some acidity problem.

    Thanks Nakshatra

    It is scary as well as very much needed. I am going for a checkup in this week, mostly tomorrow.
    Just to update, I started having adequate water since past 1 month & all symptoms that I mentioned in initial post are reduced to half. But again yesterday had very bad stomach cramps & felt nausea-tic. So going for a thorough checkup in this week.

    DG
