Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I am a 50 year old male. I have been running 3-4 miles 4-5 times a week for the past 13 years. I am 6 2 and my weight has been pretty consistent at 205--I also have crohns disease. Over the past few years, it seems like it is harder to breath when I run and my distance has dropped dramatically and pace from 8:30/mile to around 10:00min/mile. On top of that, since July, my upper belly seems swollen or bloated and my weight has shot to 218. I probably eat between 1500 and 200 calories so the weight gain and swollen belly is really weird. Any ideas?
[|AI|]  Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. Your symptoms can be related to bloating which is the presence of gas in the stomach or intestines. I suggest using Dimethicone medication three times of day such as Gas x. I also suggest avoiding food that can trigger your symptoms such as spicy food or too much caffeine. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
