a problem with gas

Post by sjb46 » Sat Mar 05, 2011 3:12 pm

I know that I asked once before what you do for this problem but it went away and I don't remember what was suggested. It's really embarassing and I would appreciate any ideas.

I'm learning to live with it and I got my own office.

Go buy some GAS-X. It truly does work! I've been hit hard with it @ both ends and it's not fun. GAS-X really takes care of it for me. Just a minor inconvenience for what, hopefully, will be my "cure-all" and get me back to living...

Gas-X does help if your gas is caused by the foods you eat. However, it it is caused by air passing through from a high pressured CPAP, it doesn't help. At least, it didn't for me.
