I hate to say this (and I really hope I'm wrong) but has she been tested for ovarian cancer? One of the symptoms is bloating, along with feeling full after only a small amount to eat. There are other symptoms, too. It's called the "silent killer" because most of the symptoms don't show until it's advanced, but if it's spotted early enough, there's a good chance of a recovery. Of course, if she's previously had a hysterectomy where the ovaries have been removed as well, then what I've said is totally irrelevant!! I hope she's OK. Please keep us posted. Best of luck, K xx
