Hi...MedHelp can not remedy her issue, but as a support forum we can share our experiences and mayb lead her to another avenue she may not have  or her drs have looked at yet.

U can ask this question to the experts in the expert forum, but with out a physical exam it is diff to dx via the internet.
Is she under the care of a GI dr?

Was she put on meds?...was her diet modified?

Hi Selma! thanks for the share..well ur right..my wife needs to be checked by a doctor..right now, she has not yet consulted one..but we are already considering the same..i have read some inputs in the forum and we have followed one and it seems it is helping my..this is about taking probiotic drink, simethicone and activated charcoal which has somehow reduced the gas in her stomach and colon...thanks and God Bless!
