But not too hard of a pat or you might frighten small children and animals with southern sound effects!

omg...cant nelieve i found this thread....i had RNY in september and i had so much gas, i couldnt believe it. i never knew a person could have so much gas. well in december, i had my gall bladder out and now no gas! i dont know if it will come back or not

Too bad we can't use this gas for some kinda alternative fuel! Funny a little pouch and some skipped sections of intestine can produce so much! I think I'm gonna try to crop dusting and blaming someone else these Christmas shopping lines are just way to long.

Speaking of gas and the gall bladder... I taking actigall to help with gall stones but I am wondering if it interacts with gas x? Does anyone know?

I didn't find where gas x and actigall could not be taken together in my med book. The only thing I rea

The only thing that I read was that if you take an antacid. Take the antacid one hour before or two hours after taking the actigall.

well i spoke too soon...the gas is back,,,like a long lost friend,,,NOT!!!!!

Same thing with your calcium. Don't take calcium and antacid together. Gas x..hmm I don't know. I seem to take randomly. I had my gallbladder out 10years ago so never had to take the actigall.

well i spoke too soon...the gas is back,,,like a long lost friend,,,NOT!!!!!

I'm telling u use it to your advantage if you are going out during the Christmas frenzy. I'm sure it would clear a crowd if it's anything like mine :)
