So bloated

[beautifulshades]

I am SO bloated! seems like over the counter gas meds aren't working...not counting the problems of going #2; it hurts most of the time and on top of it causing flares, but the gas is getting really bad, like embarrassingly bad. Does this sound like IBS or PFD? Please Help me! Any suggestions?:confused:

I had IBS-like symptoms for a while. I did the IBS diet, soluble fiber, and took probiotics. That helped. But once I did PT for PFD the IBS totally went away! I think the warm baths twice a day helped for some reason... Don't know why but it never came back and it's been several months.

Musiclover - talk to me about Probiotics. I have been on Shaklee Pre/Probiotics and several people have told me that is what is causing my pain. I was hoping to have it help the IBS which is out of its mind right now. These probiotics do not contain anything that should irritate the IC or even lactose. I am only eating (boiled chicken) broth, noodles, potatoes and pears, so I don't the IC or IBS is being bothered by that. I am in the middle of switching from DMSO installations to another kind today, since I am having so much trouble.
