If the battery was not a OEM battery, that may have been the problem even if Fujifilm recommended it. Usually most camera manufactures only recommend there own brand for this very reason. Third party batteries, although many here swear by them, cause problems such as swelling and third party batteries usually only last a fraction of the time an OEM battery would.
Personally, the only batteries I trust are OEM batteries. I believe my $6500.00 camera deserves a $78.00 battery. That battery only costs a little over 1% of the total cost of the camera.
I am very surprised Fuji would recommend a third party battery for their cameras. If I were you I would notify Fuji of your situation because it reflects badly on Fuji to recommend a battery that swells in their cameras. You may just be doing them a big favor by notifying them of this issue.
Good luck and keep on shooting until the end.
