I would guess it would work on any kind of bubble -- whether just air or gas. It's worth a try. It's supposed to be one of the safest things to take in the world, according to my son's gastroenterologist. You can't take it within 4 hours of taking thyroid meds, but I don't know if there are any other contraindications. Barbara H.

ok, along with this have you discovered that foods effect you differently now too? LIke if I eat too many carbs in the afternoon I get very sleepy.

Re: [TMIC] OK, another *graphic * question/foods
Dear Fellow Farting TM'ers, I feel (and smell) your pain. I am a Mexican food fanatic and I will not give it up. I also take Gas-X andhave addedBeano to aid in quieting this gastric symphony. Just thought I would "run" that by everyone!!!

Make PC-to-Phone Calls to the US (and 30+ countries) for 2¢/min or less. OK! OK! I'll admit to it too! Every time I move I fart...I change positions in bed, I fart. I transfer, I fart. I move in my chair, I fart. My husband picks me up to shower, to get in and out of the truck, to get in and out of the hairdresser's chair, I fart, fart, fart!!! In the dentist's chair, when the dentist asks me to open wider...I fart! The more I use my digital bowel program, the more often I pass gas. For some reason a lot of air must go in as my bowel program progresses. To be quite "graphic", I need to do a fair amount of digital stimulation to get things really moving. I cannot sit on a commode or anything; I have to lie on my side with one leg up and bent so that I can reach behind me. I use "chucks" to prevent soiling my bedding, and use lots of gloves, etc. Umm, lost my track of mind... Oh, anyway, I think that with all of the stimulation things open up pretty wide and that's when the air gets in. I wondered if GasX or something of the equivalent would help, but wasn't sure because it isn't regular "gas" caused by food. There is a big difference between the two "gasses". One has no odor, and the other does...big time with some of us! Certain foods Definitely do cause gas. Well, for what it's worth, that's my nickel's worth today. I hope I didn't gross anyone out too much. We are all adults here and I tried to be considerate of others as I wrote. Bless Us All, Jude
Re: [TMIC] OK, another *graphic * question/foods (Quite graphic, but not lewd)
EXACTLY! Mine is odor free, and I also have to manually stimulate to poop...so is that why? Because I have opened up inside? yes there are certain foods now that do make me gas up more than they used tobut these odor free ones just sneak up on me! I would like to hope that gas x or mylanta gas would help that some..ESPECIALLY when I go away...[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Oh, anyway, I think that with all of the stimulation things open up pretty wide and that's when the air gets in.
