Flatulence

Just for reference-Belly cramps, to the point of having to walk with a slight bend forward to ease the pain, is a definate sign of Lactose intolerence.

Please can we clear up the effluvium question.What is it?

Effluvium- The odorous fumes given off by waste or decaying matter. In other words, "fart smell".

I was attempting to be a bit elegant about this matter!

elegance in a fart thread.

this is also a sign of wheat intolerance.
Except for , wheat intolerant people dont get the shits like lactose intolerant people can and do.


( teehee.. hows that for elegant? )

you know talking about pain... when i wear some tight pants or sitting down squezeeng my belly i feel a nasty cramp on my lower right part of my belly..where the apendix is..but only when i wear tight pans..if i wear oose pans no pain whatsoever

duh

then dont wear tight pants.

I had to add some warm water to the dry puppy food for the puppies about thirty minutes ago. Mommy dog went absolutely nuts chowing down with her kids.

Now, she is choosing to lay at MY feet and fart.

There is absolutely no way for a human fart to ever smell as bad as what is currently penetrating my nostrils. I don't care what your system might find intolerable - It can't possible compete with this.

And, to think she's giving ME looks of disgust!

well your feet might stink!


i know the smell you are talking about. It is a fart ofa mother dog.
something about their body chemistry when they are nursing.. holy ***t. Not even mommy cats smell that bad..
what gives
ahahha

squinney- What kind of pooches do you have? I have had a Boston Terrier, and a Boxer. They both have short snouts, which gives them a tendency to fart, big time.

Beagles and speagles (puppies - a brittany spanial got ahold of our virgin beagle so we had speagles)

How on earth does a short snout relate to flatulance?

Well, the only thing that I could find about short faced dogs is that they have respiratory problems. They snort and snore.

I can tell you though, through personal experience, that they fart, big time!

Well, thats depressed me even more, knowing Im gona have the sh*ts for the rest of my life!

wait till youre old ... when your brakes start slipping!!!! lmao

Re: Flatulence

Oh, yeah, big time! I'm on prescription medication for my problems though.

My gastro-intestinal problems are two-fold. I take an Rx for excess stomach acid (Losec), and another (Motilium) to keep "things moving along" within my intestines. If I didn't, "things would back up" and give me major problems. No laughing matter either. Bad enough to put me into our local ER.

I've always been told by my doc to drink lots of water, and eat lots of fiber, etc, among other things.

Every once in a while, I would get a "blip" where my system would be out of balance due to god-knows-what. There's a hundred and one different ways.

Just to give you a small sample of things that I'm to avoid:
Alcohol, coffee, tea, carbonated drinks, chocolate, spicy foods, eating too much, etc, etc...

In my case, I found a way to even out these "blips". Don't laugh now, okay? One word....prunes! Yup, seems to help good.

I'll say one thing, for people like myself who can suffer from chronic gas cramping, it is hell when you get it. It's like being knifed in the gut.

I hope you find the answer to your problems. Don't feel embarrassed to talk to your doctor about it. You could have symptoms of something else.
