Only if he has a prescription for it.

Only if the Farter is using it with their CPAP machine.

OUR Farts don't stink! It's just those non-CPAP wearing spouses who stink!

I have to say it MAGNIFIES my dogs farts! I have one dog, 110lbs who has bad gas issues and it is potent concentrated in the CPAP mask. I feel like I am being asphixiated! Air freshner is a must with him!

My ex-BF feeds his Australian Blue Healer some sort of chlorophyll-based pill that helps with her gas. Doesn't eliminate it, doesn't make it ALL ROSEY AND PERFUME, but HELPS!

I think i'ts chlorophyll.... Ask your local pet store about a fart pill.

And then slip it to your spouse...

LOL,
Babs

smells

Post by houltkin » Sat Jul 19, 2008 4:48 am

I don't have to smell [things] anymore at night
Then you must be breathing through your mouth.

Remember, you're still breathing the ambient air. xPAP doesn't do anything with it except boost it up. The itty bitty filter just keeps the pet hair and carpet fibers from entering.

Maybe your husband isn't creating as much gas because he's sleeping better without the extra snoring noise.

Do you suffer from NFS?

Post by DreamDiver » Sat Jul 19, 2008 6:24 am

Are you often woken up at night by gluteal vibrations and odors? You may have Nocturnal Flatus Syndrome. NFS is a serious problem, often attributed to barking spiders and anxious cats or dogs. But now, there is a scientific answer to this age-old dilemma.

Introducting Exhaustia LE.
Image
Exhaustia LE taken twice a day reduces painful gas, odor and gluteal vibrations, allowing for better sleep, happier sleep partners and less anxious cats and dogs. Ask your doctor about Exhaustia LE today...

(May cause serious side effects including headache, mild seizure, vomiting, nausea, gas and in some very rare instances coccyx tumors or vestigial tail growth. Stop taking Exaustia LE should any of these symptoms occur. Brought to you by Pharmaceutica, a WrestFunds LLC.)

DreamDiver - PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, do you take this orally, or is it used RECTALLY, kinda like a CORK?

And if the latter, wouldn't one of the side effects be spontaneous combustion?

LOL,
Babs

It's a suppository of course, but we don't say that in the commercial. You find out that surprise when you get it. (You'll also learn that it's a two-inch long purple/orange gel-cap.) As to the spontaneous combustion, those tests were not done by an approved lab. Therefore, those tests were legally inconclusive. For that reason, our lawyers suggest we can legally say "There are no tests to prove spontaneous combustion is in any way tied to Exhaustia LE."

Surely the FDA would never approve a harmful drug. Surely...
