I have probably been experiencing these symptoms for about 4 or 5 years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did your symptoms affect your day-to-day life?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was constantly having to think about what I was eating and drinking, where toilets where, and what clothing I was wearing due to bloating.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What did you feel unable to do as a result of your symptoms? (Activities and hobbies that you could no longer do etc.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I become very conscious of my bloating and how I looked in my clothes so I became more and more reluctant to go out and socialise and how I looked at work in suit attire.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you hear about YorkTest? (Through a friend\/family member, on the internet etc.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I googled testing for stomach problems.
