These are rather nonspecific symptoms. Do you note them when up and about? Do you feel that you have excessive gas buildup that's difficult to expel. if so you may be intolerant of lactose or gluten foods. Taking simethicone after meals prevents gas. Try eliminating dairy foods. If no improvement, try eliminating gluten. Consult a physician if you feel these suggestions don't pertain to you
