Is it Regular Bloat or MCAS Bloat?

In the podcast, Dr. Weinstock discusses the symptom of bloating as a common indicator of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), emphasizing that this bloating is distinct due to its rapid onset and fluid accumulation in the abdomen. He highlights that this type of bloating is not like typical bloating, as it is characterized by a solid, rather than tympanic, abdomen due to fluid rushing into the gut lumen. The discussion further covers the overlap and interconnectedness of MCAS with conditions like Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS), which Dr. Weinstock refers to as the "evil triad." The podcast explores the signs, symptoms, and considerations for managing these interconnected conditions.
