I am having terrible problems with my tummy. I feel bloated and feel as though my stomach is stuffed clear to my throat and if I could burp it would help but can't. I have started prilosec but not helping yet what can I do?

How about drinking hot water to help clean your system out, works for me.

Here are few tips that could help you: While eating, chew your food. This helps to reduce bloating. Raw vegetables, cabbage, beans rae bloat producers. Soak your limas and lentils. Beans are full of fiber and good for you, so if you want to keep eating limas, lentils or any other members of the bean crowd, soak them in water overnight.Sorbitol, a natural sugar used in sugarless gums and candies and many diet sodas, also is hard to digest and causes gas and bloating.Avoid chocholates. Because it contains sugar and dairy, both major sources of gas. There is an useful article at:http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/67801 wherein you can find more home remedies.

I have had this a couple times which followed after a very heavy meal. I took about a half cup water and stirred in a teaspoon baking soda, mix really good till disolved and drink it down. You'll burp like a pig but sure feel better after, hope it helps for you, it did me.
