QuestionI have IBS, lately I have been having bad gas, belching and pain in the right back when I breath, along with bloating, and passing gas, just not fun.
I take gas reducing pills but I just don't get alot of relief.
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.
AnswerIf you have the constipation predominant IBS, then this new drug, Zelnorm, really helps. If it is diarrhea and constip, then increasing fiber helps a little, metamucil capsules, etc, and also avoiding milk/ cheese/ butter/ ice cream for a while. Also, trying some acid blocking meds, like over the counter Zantac, 2 pills twice a day.
Hope this helps...
