I've had this almost every day now and I don't know why. When I pass gas it's hot and has a very strong sulfur/egg smell. I have to spray the room every time I pass gas as it's appalling. My stomach keeps popping inside and making noises while this happens as well. I've tried taking peppermint capsules and some other medication to ease the upset stomach but it only works occasionally. My diet hasn't really been the best lately (eating more junk), so is this the reason? It seems like if I eat more than twice a day I get this. I know it's probably the reason but WHY is it happening? Is it just IBS? Or could it be something more serious?
Hi Rach!
Try completely eliminating ALL carbonated beverages first. That REALLY helped my husband!
Gas-X is helpful, too.
I have noticed that when I DON'T eat my yogurt with active cultures, I suffer more from gastrointestinal issues.
Some foods seem to be the culprit at times. You MAY want to eliminate suspect foods one at a time to see if any are making your problems worse.
Eggs, green beans, black beans, onions, some cheeses are often troublemakers for me. Your list may be entirely different.
Fried foods can cause issues, too.
Try a bowl of oatmeal each day for awhile. That helps me, plus it is YUMMY topped with fresh fruit!
Let me know if any of these ideas help!♥️
Do you have any stomach pain that moves about and bowel habit change? If you do, IBS may be a possibility. I would avoid junk food and cook from fresh. Also try a food diary. If this has gone on for longer than a week, see your doctor.
