Embarrassing Moments

I am the gassiest person I know.  I am working at a school and I have lost control a few times in front of people.  I bought gas relief pills and put a bunch in my purse but somehow lost them.  I took one from the bottle this morning and it seemed to help.  I started taking a supplement that was supposed to help but it seemed to make it worse.  I am going to try it at night to see if that helps.  I watched some pertinent videos last night and I'm going to pick up some probiotic and other stuff.  Am I alone?  Part of the problem might be that I don't poop every day.  Anyone else have these problems?  I'm so embarrassed.  It's worse than ever!

Any chance you've developed a new allergy to a food you're eating. Maybe dairy products for example.

I looked that up too. It could be Sandwell. I love dairy products. I have had trouble with intermittent constipation and diarrhea but since the end of August, I've been on Keto. Keto causes constipation. I also have been mostly drinking decaf coffee except when I get a McDonald's iced or hot coffee. That usually ends the constipation. Thanks for writing!

Seems like this might be a good question to ask your physician?

Not going every day is probably an issue. Probiotics are good and you need prebiotics too. Prebiotics are foods high in fiber.

The reason why peanuts as much as I love having them I cannot have, too gassy and so are my greens. Not to forget to mention milk. Never knew I was lactose but lately my stomach bubbles and rumbles after I have some milk.

Agree about not going every day possibly being part of the issue. Maybe a fiber supplement might help. I have a history of some pretty serious GI issues. Lot of things can upset gut health.

Thanks everyone! LOL arfie! Last night I took my new supplement and when I got up this morning, I didn't have any problems upon rising as I do every morning. I also took an Equate gas relief pill. I was amazed at my body. I didn't have any symptoms until 11:45 and didn't bring an extra gas pill because I was getting out at Noon. The supplement is for liver health. I hope it continues to work! When I got in my car, I started eating my tuna wrap too fast and got the worst indigestion that I've ever had. I threw up all over myself. I pulled over 4 times. It was truly awful.
