Since I have gained some weight, especially since gaining a lot more weight after starting remicade a few months ago, I have noticed that it looks like i have 2 belly stomach bulges. Its like a thinner bulge where my stomach would be, about 5 inches of my abdomen, above my belly button. Then it dips down for like an inch, then there is my belly button, then there is my normally belly that sticks out a lot further. I get really bloated, and then it just looks really weird. I could understand just a regular bulge around and below the belly button area, but I have never had to deal with two bloated stomachs!

I know this doesn't make a lot of since the way i am describing it.
It like a B. But with a flat area in-between the little bulge and the bigger bottom bulge and then my chest on top.

I'm not experiencing any symptoms right now, except when I eat too much dairy or gluten.

Does anyone know what this is? It may not be anything at all, i was just wondering because its never been like this before and I don't see anyone else like this. Also, its limiting my wardrobe to tshirts and loose sweaters:yfaint:

thanks
 
It may just be thy you're feeling better with the Remicade and simply just gaining weight. Maybe try to get some exercise? It may just be te way you are gaining weight, I'm not sure!

It could be bloating. Dairy bloats me like crazy. Maybe you could try cutting out the dairy in your diet for a few weeks and see if it gets better? If it is bloating, it could also be from gluten. If you are feeling ok, you could play with your diet a bit and see what happens.
