Hey all,

 

I am 4+ years out and all of a sudden I have a gas issue. This new and really bad. It gets so bad I double over in pain and then finally it breaks loose. Anybody have similar experience this far out?

I get gas if I eat junk.  You want to try the following steps in your quest for resolution:

1. Elimination diet - go with Atkins basics for a day or 2 - you should find out soon enough.  May be worth skipping dairy and sweetener as there are some folk that have problems with even Splenda and stevia and lactose of course.  If it helps re-introduce foods slowly and pay attention when symptoms come back.

2. Add probiotics - primal defense ultra is what most DSers swear by (I've not got to that stage thus far).

3. If all else fails you may want to try a course of Flagyl.

HTH.

I suffered horribly with that issue for a year.  My diet was down to only meat, anything else and it wa**** or miss.  Dr Stewart gave me a 10 day course of Flagyl and it changed my life.  I feel like a new person!

Thanks All. My diet has not been a typical DS diet, but it has not changed. I think I may have picked up a bug. I tried the probiotic last night and it seems much better today.

 

DS sure does some strange things to your bod:)
