Quadius, Are you talking about Acidophillis (sp) tablets to replace yogurt? If not, which ones are you talking about? Thanks.

I had a tremendous amount of problems with my bowels constantly being irritated and tremendous amounts of gas about two years ago. In fact, it was so bad I was becoming somewhat depressed. I ended up seeing a psychotherapist and he suggested that I keep a food journal and speak with the VA dietitian. Using my food journal, the dietitian quickly identified most of my problems as being more lactose intolerant than I had previously believed and taking in too much fiber at one time. I really think seeing a dietitian and having a food journal in hand might solve plenty of your problems. I use lactose tablets in order to eat anything with dairy and I also use Beano whenever I eat something that causes gas normally (beans). This has helped considerably. My dietitian told me these are enzymes with help the digestive system work better. I have also started using probiotics (found in yogurt) and I've even found some tablets so I don't have to eat a tub of yogurt per day.

I find it helps to roll on my left side for a few minutes each morning. I use a high velocity window fan so my aids don't quit. May as well laugh and stay away from broccoli. john -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sat, 19 May 2007 11:59 PM Subject: [QUAD-L] Gas Gas …, and not from the gas pump. I complained of my stomach bloating. Worst is the pain! So I take Prilosec, Renetadine, and anti-acid. Still the two issues persist and the SCI doctor said, "it is part of the injury for quads to bloat. I can not accept this to be true. Any other gas problems?
