Maybe I'm stoical. But this isn't the end of the world. I can eat quite a healthy variety of foods, and am enjoying my food and have good appetite generally. I have regular once a day bowel movements which are not dramatically horrible at their worst and are mosty quite normal.
Gratitude out of the way.
Now there's lower belly bloating and tight discomfort (not literally pain) in the evenings. It lasts for hours and comes on about 3-hours after dinner. It happens most nights.
I never get it during the day.
I am keeping a food diary but it's hard to pin down foods that trigger it. One day I can eat broccoli or cauliflower for example....lentils....chocolate and not get that. On another day I feel like a zeppelin and have eaten the same -or even something much milder and definitely "low FODMAP".
This didn't used to happen before Covid-19.
I did get some gut disturbance 2 years ago for about a week, when I "caught " whatever-it-was (never diagnosed) that set off ME/CFS. But that never included this bloating and feeling like trapped wind that never comes out.
2 years ago that went away after about a week and didn't recur.
So far I don't have a history of IBS. Though over the past weeks it's begun to feel like a mild form of IBS....
Yet I am sure it's related to coronavirus.
