davidP 15 Posted April 28 Hi guys, So after good 5 years ( in terms of HA...) looks like i am back in the cycle 😞 ..... 5 years ago i was in in every cycle you can imagine. This time i am in the stomach/colon fear again. The trigger was last week. I started to have diarrhea and lose stool. My gut keeps on making the growling sounds and I am pretty much very gassy. If it would pass in a day or 2 i guess i would not pay attention, the fact it went longer put my anxiety back up and as i know HA, i am pretty sure it only making symptoms worse. Anyone else suffering from noisy guts and lots of gas movement ?  Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sTeaLth 232 Posted April 28 From time to time, yes. I had a bad upper stomach pain for six months. Nothing was ever found and it finally stopped after trying supplements. No other symptoms happened either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidP 15 Posted May 3 Anyone know if those probiotics pills should make me super gassy ? I mean really gassy and noisy belly from these gasses. I never took probiotics before in my life.   Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sTeaLth 232 Posted May 3 They can. Not all do though. I take them daily with no issue. I’ve taken others that caused lots of issues like gas. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MARC 428 Posted May 3 I am gassy and my stomach makes noises too. My GI physician told me to take Florastor 3 times a day, which is a probiotic. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike L 86 Posted May 20 Medications impact people differently. What might make you gassy might not for me and vice versa. I would try different things to see what works and what doesn't. I am sure you will find something that works for you. Have you heard of IBGard? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then again, im in Europe so we might have different names/products. My bowel/intestines still making rumbling noises. So far had blood checks, abdominal ultrasound and was all clear. Cannot say i am not worried… did colonoscopy 5 years ago, so the doctor less worried on that front.  its like a month i am with this noises and loose/ floating stools. If its nothing serious i would really like some good product to try. Everyone saying probiotics are very good, but didn’t had much success with the 2 kinds i tried. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have gone through the whole bowel fears myself! If you're interested, a bunch of us old school AC people are in on a group chat on FB messenger. Shoot me a message and I can add you if you want! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It might be helping too much. Dehydration may also be an issue if there is a bit more gas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
