I'm not a doctor either, so I don't know why you're having this problem.  I'm curious, though, about a couple of things. So I have some questions for you:
1. Do you gulp the water when you drink it?
2. Are you swallowing a lot of air when you exercise (so then it wouldn't be sweating, but working out and sucking in extra air that triggers it)? This can happen even when you anxious/tense and your breathing changes.
3. How much does the bloating expand your waist or abdomen? Have you thought about measuring your abdomen when you're not bloating and then when you're bloated, just so you have some concrete evidence that you are extremely bloated?
4. Do you have any physical pain along with the bloating? Any other IBS symptoms (such as D or C)?
5. What happens or when does your bloating go away? After you urinate, have a BM, or pass gas? Or do you go to bed bloated and then wake up normal?
6. Have you tried Phayzme or Gas-X? Does it help?
7. What does your doctor/s have to say about it? If you don't think they know enough to help, have you thought about getting a second or third opinion?
I hope you can get some relief soon!
