My bloating went down a LOT. I think it was a mix of herbs and dehydration. I got a mild food poisoning at th start of my trip and i typically drink less water when im not home. So I think less water and too much sodium contributed to some water weight. For the last two days of my trip i ate pretty easily digestable foods and tried to drink between 10-12 cups of water a day! Feeling much better now and my breasts felt sore and tingly today!

I was also thinking the gastric thing but I have been having stomach acid issues from too much alcohol so I am taking meds to keep that under control but that could still be part of the bloating issue.
I guess I wont know until my next cycle if this happens again but at least I'm feeling better now!
It just reminds me we all need to be careful with herbs :blush:

Ah yes good old alcohol.. hear that!
Trying to have many absent days too.
That's a lot of water ! I might up my intake.
What meds are you on the the stomach acid issues?
