Episode Details

A listener's meticulous documentation of post-meal bloating — tape measurements, photos, and a consistent cheese sandwich — raises a surprising question: does the medical field even know what "normal" abdominal expansion looks like? We dig into abdominophrenic dyssynergia, a muscular coordination problem often mistaken for excess gas, and explain why the tape measure might be a better clinical tool than most patients realize. Plus: how to take photos a neurogastroenterologist can actually use, and why the bloating diary might be the key to getting real answers.
