I'm having this really uncomfortable issue with gas that seems to flare up after lunch and gradually gets worse by the evening. It's like my digestive power just isn't what it used to be. I feel hungry, but when I eat, it doesn't seem to digest properly, and my stomach feels tight. Even if I eat just a little bit, I start burping a lot. This has been going on for about 4 to 5 years. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

Your symptoms of gas, bloating, reduced digestive power, feeling uneasy, and difficulty digesting food, which have persisted for 4-5 years, may indicate underlying conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroparesis, small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or enzyme deficiencies, so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation, diagnosis, and personalized treatment plan to alleviate your symptoms and improve digestion.
