Hi Nilla, Anything is helpful, Kind Regards

I don't think that the smell is that different from the duodenal switch as both the gastric bypass and duodenal have altered intestines. but yes the stench is very horrid it's like decomposed food rotting in a corner somewhere. And my poor husband, the poor bastard puts up with it. before him it was my mother and brother and they had to put up with it for several years. i don't believe that it's fair on them. What about at work? also why is it such a taboo subject? i've looked in here and did many searches and couldn't come up with anything. So now the question is how do we minimise the stench or eliminate it completely? I stay away from milk and am taking probiotics but zilch. Anyone else with ideas?

For those of you who have had gastric bypass surgery, how do you deal with the horrible foul smelling gas? what do you take other than probiotics to curb the smell?
