Personally, I've had bloating where I feel like I drink endless amounts of water but still feel thirsty and then uncomfortably full, like the water isn't going through or something. For me this subsided after a few days. I did go see a doctor too. Which I would highly recommend doing. You will not be the first heavy drinker they have dealt with. You can do yourself a favor by just being honest about it to the doctor. I know that was a tough step for me.
