just a question...I have this feeling of fullness from my belly button to my hairline and i've seen 3 doctors and they say i'm fine, but thougt it could be from the cysts on my ovaries...thought those were too small to be bothersome though. Does anyone know anything about this? Please email me back.. Amy_53405@yahoo.com
Yep, I get the same feeling all of the time. I am thin, but get very bloated and full very often in the area which you are refering to. When I was married and trying to get pregnant, I always thought maybe I was pregnant and the doctors were wrong. I'm kinda wondering if I have IBS, after watching the commercials that have been coming on tv lately.

cysts on ovaries and IF--thin cyster
I am afraid to go to my doctor because I know what he will say, "Its normal, come back and see me in 4 months." It seems as though, I get full very quickly. When I wake up in the morning I feel like I have a full belly, like I still am digesting my dinner from last night. This makes me want to eat less, and I am a thin one. I hope someone can give more feed back.
well, I asked my doctor about the "fullness" feeling and he said it could either be the old endometrium build up in my uterus, or I could have a spastic bladder. He said those 2 parts are in the same area and the only way to know is to see a urologist and if it is the bladder, get put on meds to control the spastic bladder, but those meds cannot be taken when pregnant, so he told me basically to just try to ignore it if I can..LOL...
Do a google search on "pelvic congestion". I first saw this mentioned in a book about PCOS, and I think it's something a lot of women have. I thought I might have it for a time, but after learning more about it, I don't. Anyway, just wanted to pass that along.
Do you have this issue?
