Stomach issues/ excessive gas

Mental health
1

Ive been going through something similar i dont know what IBS is but I've been having a lot of gas, burping all day long back to back. Diarrhea and stomach cramps. Also when i burp i have this weird taste not like a food taste but like a taste i can not explain very odd. Has anyone else experience this?

Yes I have had anxiety daily for last few years and every day I have a sloshy sound in me tummy and I literally can burp from morning to night. I think its because I always feel hard wired and have a racey heart

I also get tension in my stomach

I'm only 24 and nonot on meds

Hi Jen,

The burping and tasting food sounds like it may be a bit of acid reflux easily managed with products from the chemist.

Could be IBS, best consult your doctor for the best plan of action..

Yeah that taste is from acid reflux (GERD) it is similar to IBS. It is more likely both. When you get a nervous stomach from anxiety it can cause acid reflux and ibs symptoms and also swallowing to much air which can be triggered by anxiety aswell. I have these symptoms for about 6 years on and off from my health anxiety

Hi Jenni,

I had a problem with acid reflux (GERD). I burped constantly, my stomach gurgled no stop (borborigmi), had a sickly feeling, coughed but could not clear my throat and felt like there was something in my throat.

Last October I bought some kefir grains from a well known online company and began making my own kefir, it has made a huge difference, stopped the reflux.

I do not believe drugs work and the problem with them apart from causing damage to your health is, they stop acid production which is the reverse of what is needed. Acid reflux is actually caused by low acid in the stomach not high. Doctors are unaware of this, check it out.

Hey yes you are exactly right it can be low acid. Because symptoms of low acid is burping where high acid reflux is not. Apple cider vinegar can help
