I feel like a baby. I have this issue I have had for years. The only way I can describe it is colic. Before surgery I had an colostomy, and endoscope for this problem. It's like my stomach starts to swell and it's full of gas. Takes days to finally exit. It's miserable. Im on nexium for reflux, I tried a stool softner (miralax) and pepto. Has anyone ever had this issue? Please give me the magic answer. I will add to it, it kinda feels like a stomach virus, but I know u can't get that many stomach virus.. Help.. Thanks

Have you tried adding a daily probiotic dosing??? I'm not sure if it would help, but I love using probiotics when my stomach gets out of whack.

GNC has a pretty great unflavored probiotic crystal stuff that you sprinkle on your tongue, or mix with any liquid and it's truly unflavored and tasteless.

I'm sure you've been through all this with your doctors already, but just in case... Do certain foods trigger it?  If so, maybe something like Beano or Lactaid.  If not, maybe just regular Gas-X.
