Need more info: I'm not sure that the paroxetine has anything to do with your complaint. I think what may be causing your discomfort may be the reason why you were taking the paroxetine in the first place. It sound like you have irritable bowel syndrome which can be emotionally caused. Please see your physician to get more specific advice and relieve you of your discomfort.

Med withdrawal: Unlikely there is any relation between stopping paroxetine and your stomach being "swollen" several months later. Do see your pcp for exam, proper diagnosis and guidance for abdominal issues. If you think you need to re-start paroxetine, see prescribing doctor or psychiatrist for an evaluation. I hope this helps.
