okay! sooo... everyone has it... i have it... ESPECIALLY. ergh and its so embarassing. i know us CFers get it just b/c of all that CF STUFF, so i always remember to take my enzymes/etc., but sometimes, i do EVERYTHING right, and i still get it. alot. bloating. ahh!

so my questionsss are: am i the only one? do you get it? if so, do you use something to help? if so (again) does it help? if so (again), what do you use?

poop this stinks (no pun intended).

Read Emily's post today on gross girly stuff. It is probably yeast in your bowel. When I get some gas I insert a tea tree oil suppository. It works the best. I once had really bad gas and I just put in one suppository at bedtime and after one hour I had no more gas and I was gas free for almost twenty four hours. I could not believe it. I must have eating too many beans or something. Usually I am find but like you said once in a while it can sneak up on you. Watch what you are eating. If you eat foods high in fiber gas will be a part of it until you get use to the diet change. If you have an upset stomach, take new drugs this can happen. There are so many possible variables that can create excessive gas so pay attention to what you are putting into your mouth. This too shall pass (pardon the pun)

Kate, you might need to change your enzymes to a different brand and strength or just need more. Ask your nutritionist about it. When it's too frequent and too much bloating, there should be an answer for it. That's what I've been told.
