I am very grateful that you took the time to reply to my message.The link you provided was very helpful and and gave me information that I did not have. I will definately try out your suggestions but not the alcohol part as I am a teetotler.
Thank you.

Hello, Nehishirke. Sorry to hear of your situation. I noted a few things from your post:

"I always had strong stomach cramps." This sounds like possible IBS, in case this had never been suggested to you before. I believe that gastrointestinal pains are one of the primary (and mandatory) symptoms of IBS per the Rome Criteria (first link below).

"...hoping this is a case of small bowel bacterial overgrowth." You might take a SIBO test. I just did last month, and came back negative. But 2/3rds-3/4ths of folks with IBS come up positive, per studies. First link below.

"I'm personally going to try a self administered Antibiotic therapy..." I won't personally suggest doing same, but will state that Ceftin (cefuroximine) and Augmentin (amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate combination) had at least good short term results for my gas symptoms. After first thoroughly researching common gastrointestinal Antibiotics for bacterial infections on the Net, I got mine without prescription through quick trips to Tijuana, Mexico (I live in So Cal).

"...as if I was unknowingly passing gas constantly." If so, then this isn't stress-related, but a constant condition. If not IBS, then a bacterial imbalance of some sort possibly since the gas has to come from somewhere -- most likely undesirable bacteria (as opposed to acidophilus and bifidus) or an infection such as giardia (which can cause gas). If nothing else, this has confirmed for me that my gas issue is bacterial in nature.

"Stool Tests (I suspect they were performed poorly as the lab had a bad reputation)." Both Great Plains Lab and Great Smokies Lab are reputable gastrointestinal labs, although even the best labs simply can't always find everything that's there unfortunately. The gut has an incredibly rich and complex flora. Links below.

If you score high on the Rome Criteria, you might want to check out the IBS books at the bood store. Best wishes on your successful treatment, Nehishirke.

"My immune system is so accustomed to fighting off EVERY (not exaggerating) EVERY food I consume because I am allergic to it..."
#3135, if you haven't already, you might look into diagnosing and repairing a "Leaky Gut," as this is a common cause of food allergies . I assume you've been clinically tested for food allergies -- if not, you should. A search of "leaky gut" on Google will bring up a boatload of sites. Great Smokies Lab and AAL Reference Laboratories offer "Intestinal Permeability" (leaky gut) tests -- first links below.

"I don't even have an allergic reaction that I can notice. Just that annoying IBS and air!"
It's possible that IBS is the food allergy reaction you're lookin' for. You might look into a temporary antigenic diet and see what happens (last link below). Good luck.

Fartgas is produced by the intestine during digestion, so it's also called 'Intestinal Gas'. Healthy digestion shouldn't cause a constant excess supply of gas all day long. In my experience, stomach noises (gurgles) are caused by dehydration (lack of water). I used to drink juice beverages, soda, milk, coffee, etc.,...ANYTHING except water. When I first learned that water is healthy and decided to drink water, I drank a quart of water and my stomach gurgled NON-STOP for half an hour, one gurgle after another, not even one second apart (NO exaggeration). I got worried that I was sick, I thought of going to the hospital emergency room. I felt...later for the embarrassment, but how long would it take for me to find someone to take me seriously? Everybody would be laughing and no one would be able to hear my complaint because there was so much noise, and it was so constant. That's dehydration from WATER, no other liquid satisfies the body like WATER. The intestinal gas probably should continue no longer than about two hours after a meal. Nobodys' digestion system is exactly the same, so, not everything that happens to one person is going to be exactly the same for another person. If you've never noticed, intestinal gas is FLAMMABLE (Avoid open flame unless you're in a well ventilated area). I know, I know,...I'm prone to 'kidding around', but this is no joke. When you wake up after sleeping in a room that doesn't have good ventilation and it smells, do not light a match (and stay away from people who smoke). Fartgas is METHANE (sewer gas is explosive because it is from the intestines of millions of people, this is the cause of manhole covers flying in the air from a sewer explosion). The smell (odor) of fartgas can probably be absorbed by chlorophyll (the same principle used in deodorized garlic, parsely is added, probably because the chlorophyll in plants absorbs odors just like in some types of kitty litter, probably the chlorophyll in vegetable juice would help too). As soon as you make a HABIT of drinking the proper amount of water (half of your body weight in ounces (200 pounds...100 ounces of water EVERY DAY), there probably will be a BIG improvement in your digestion (after a lot of noise), and then follow it up by adding some FRESH (LIVE enzymes) vegetable juice, especially CARROT juice, then your digestion system should be healthy enough that you will no longer have any problems (everybody still has gas once in a while, but it's not such a big problem unless they have very sloppy eating habits). Yogurt that has 'L. ACIDOPHILUS', 'BIFIDUS', 'L. CASEI', 'L. RUTEIN' and other cultures is helpful to the digestion, FRUCTOOLIGOSACCHARRIDES (FOS) are helpful too. Going to the bathroom at least (transit time) once a day to get rid of digested food is the objective. I'll post a link to the company (if I remember correctly) where I first bought digestive products, they have a lot of information on the site, but it might not be necessary to buy a whole lot more than the basic nutrients from your health food store.

My situation is identical to yours. I hardly ever allow myself to get close to anyone, and the one time I did. Well, why would anyone want to deal with this. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, let alone someone I care about.
I have found something that helps a little, decaf peach ginger tea. It seems to relax everything. I hope this helps you.

It does sound like there could possibly be a nervous conditon of STRESS that overwhelms you, but the alcohol likely doesn't directly affect the stress. Alcohol (beer) aids digestion because it's a fermented drink. Fermented foods and drinks are very healthy for digestion, and some are also high in nutrients (apple cider vinegar especially).

Avoid medications if possible, they all have side effects and cause much more damage than they are worth. Don't pay too much attention to what doctors tell you (unless you happen on a very ethical one), they have a very limited way of thinking about actually HELPING patients towards anything beneficial (like a cure). They were taught "MEDICATION", surgery, and how to make money to pay their expensive rent and buy a Mercedes Benz to go with their swimming pool.

Focus on your digestive health (starts in the mouth, saliva enzymes). Do you have any dental problems or mercury from Amalgam dental fillings?.

This site says that "most" fermented foods are acid forming (preferences are important).

It's very healthy to mix a quarter teaspoon of APPLE CIDER vinegar in a glass of water every day.

but you should also try and calm down with the stress (make a habit to listen to music/radio, hobby, games, chess, etc.).

It would probably help ALOT to cut down on solid foods and hard to digest foods and get your nutrition from vegetable juices, cottage cheese, etc. Drink the right amount of water for your weight, watch your 'transit time' (the time from eating to bathroom). Eat garlic with your food (garlic kills bad bacteria in your stomach). Check the Sea Salt page here at Curezone. Electrolytes should be a good BALANCE, so should soluble and insoluble fiber.

Citoprom and God are the cure I’ve increased my does to 1.5 pills been on it 6 weeks and the gas is completely gone
