Q: Hi, after I eat or drink anything, I feel bloated, have reflux, and belch alot.

Is this my gallbladder? I am also becoming "intolerant" to alot of my favorite foods like pizza or high fat foods. This seems to be getting worse as I get older with the attacks becoming more severe. The episodes also last for hours after I finish eating or drinking.thanks!

Actually all of your symptoms are also consistent with reflux. You can read more about them at:

It sounds like this has been going on for a while. It would be a good time to go and discuss this with your doctor. After a thorough exam, he should be able to come up with a plan with you that may involve lifestyle changes, medication and/or further testing.
