Gas smells horrible



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone is anyone having any issues with horrible gas smells? If so what can I take or eat to make them not smell as bad. My family is sick and tired and it is embarrassing. Please help I'm desperate and didn't want to write this but I need any advice please and thank you in advance.

If you aren't having frequent bowel movements, your gas smells bad. Probiotics and staying regular is probably your best hope.

I had surgery Nov 11 it should be better by now but dr says this is one of the side effects to this surgery.

Blame it on your dog. Just tell everyone that your dog had bariatric WLS.

I have horrible smelling and tasting burps. I told my bariatric clinic and they didn't seem worried. Told me to try GasX but that's not getting rid of them. Have had them for 2 weeks now (I am 1 month out) and am trying probiotics now. So far I still have them...I'm not sure how long it takes for probiotics to work, have been taking them for 4 days. I am fed up so I feel your pain!

someone I know had the same thing.... Like clear a room gas. It wound up being gallstones and needing to have gallbladder out. Don't know if that's the case for you but may be worth looking into?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
