nearly 2 weeks on, and still having a hunger feeling, but feeling so bloated that I feel full at the same time.. a sip of water has me burping like I've just downed 1/2 litre of coke, and as for yesterday, if I'd had wings I'd have looked like a fledgling learning to fly.. lol
anyone have similar issues, and if so, what helped relieve it?
Ta.
A lot of people here reported Buscopan helped. You could ask on Monday.

Hi. Once my first week was over I felt much happier about the routine and what to expect in the next few weeks
By the end of three weeks I was on morphine and was admitted for an NG tube which became my saviour for eight weeks.
I have always wanted to know everything about my cancer and did a lot of research, while my husband just put his head down and got on with it. I never interfered with that as it was his strategy just as mine was. I was the scientist of the two of us. It helped me cope with what I couldn’t control.
Easter should get you seeing a chink of sunlight. A day at a time. Hugs

Yes i know it had me doubled up in pain for a couple of minutes over some time, another thing you can try is gripe water, its normally used for babies to help with wind, the chemist sells it .
