I seriously think I am pregnant...

Anyone ever had this? I really look like I am pregnant! I got some anti gas pills but they don't seem to be working. What the hell causes this, and how do I fix it?

Doctor is not an option unless I am at risk of exploding.

I thought that too...but I don't think I could have my belly get massive in 2 days?

It's an anonoymous net forum and you're worried about looking like a dick?

You're a lardass NSFW, sorry
 
You might have a gastrointestinal yeast infection.

Drink LOTS of water. Take a tylenol to ease inflammation.

I am ready to accept this fact if that's the truth. HTF do I get fat overnight?

unless you're some kind of asexual worm...you're not pregnant...can't be done without the involvement of at least one other party...Maybe the cheetos you ate during your...movies...have given you bloat.
 
So Googled 'sudden bulge stomach' and hit the 'I'm Feeling Lucky'. Since I did paper work at a hospital in an ER for 5 years, I think I'm pretty qualified to make these diagnoses..


 
Oh for..... PICS dewd, PICS! I want some pics so when that alien pops out of your rib cage and eats half my space crew I can know what to look for next time. Oh, and since you're the mom, could you tell your mutant offspring to not eat the navigator and oh yeah, leave Jules the doctor from the sick ward. I think I've got a chance. She's HAWT!

Thanks, sorry you gotta die,

You should get that evaluated. If it is fluid (ascites), then there could be something very serious going on. Of course my clinical experience w/ ascites is 1 patient, so I have no idea if your presentation is consistent with it.

I agree.

Even more concerning would be if you had any stomach pains, constipation, nausea, or vomiting along with the swelling. What if there's some sort of obstruction there and you need to be emergently "relieved" of it?
Given the sudden onset, I would be wary, but if it's just swelling without the other previously mentioned symptoms then it's hopefully not as severe a problem. Pay 20 dollar co-pay and go see doc.
In regards to what interchange said:
If I remember previous posts correctly, you're predisposed for some liver problems given your previous social history. Though highly unlikely for the problems to surface now, it's not outside of the realm of possibilities. Go see doc also if you notice easy bruising or purple spots any where on your body, or if someone happens to mention that the whites of your eyes are yellower than usual.
Good luck.
