GASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!????

Hey everyone, I haven't been posting much as I've been running a lot. Has anyone else been experiencing severe gas? I was told that I am now Lactose intolerant and to take Lactaid. I am taking so much of that stuff that I'm considering buying stock! I'm not so sure it's working and not really sure what to do about it. Anyone else had this problem or have any suggestion? Take care, God bless, Syndi

Syndi, Some times I have such gas pains it nearly knocks me down. It comes and goes depending on what I eat. I love salads, but they kill me. I have tried everything from Beano to Phazyme. Nothing helps. Rhonda 312/166/155?

It sounds as though your really having a lot of trouble too. Did you try the Lactaid? I usually eat one before the meal and one a little while later since it takes us so long to eat. I can't really say if it helps or not since I still have the gas. Hopefully you'll get some relief soon. take care God bless, Syndi

I have really bad gas on some days too. My DH thinks I stink really bad too. It is truly a different odor than what I had before surgery. I have some pains sometimes without anything being released but I have never taken anything for it. I found out I was lactose intolerant to because I was doubled over in pain one day. I now stay away from it for the most part. I do drink lactose free milk if I am using it in cereal but I still cook with 2%. Suzanne 300/150

Oh, say no more... I have three boys and they can't handle the odor, so you know it's killing me too. I'm praying for a miracle as I have gas so often that I tend to let them out where ever I go without realizing. take care God bless, Syndi

wow we are all plauged by the same problem. I am glad to see I am not the only stinky one I did not even think milk may be involved, I drink a 8oz a day, maybe I should stop for awhile and see if that helps. I take gasex, it helps me but only if it minor gas. Jenn

Hi Jen, I am also having problems with Tomatos and anything with garlic and onions!!!!Thank God for GasXXXXXXX, it helps me get through the day. Take care, Syndi

At times I experience extreme gas too. I find that I can control it (almost) by watching what I eat. I drink Carb Countdown Fat Free milk with my protein shakes, even though it looks and takes mostly like water, it does give me the "dairy" taste I grave. I also have found that the gas is most severe when I eat food with a higher sugar alcohol content (most sugar free food has more sugar alcohol). When I cut back on the sugar alcohol and stick with more organic food (veggies and fruit) I am much better. Thanks. Kathy 333/316/179/155

I find that when I eat more fruit, it gets worse

Hi Kathy, I did notice that if I take in too much sugar alcohols, I get sick too. Good luck with your gas jus****ch the onions and garlic. Take care, Syndi
