    Worth A Try!

    I had that!  I took Zegrid OTC everyday, still do sometimes.  It really helped.

    Your doctor may have more good ideas!

    I look and feel 8 months

    I look and feel 8 months pregnant but they say it is from the chemo. I use Tums and it helped.

    Just my humble 2 cents ...

    get some advice from your Oncologist, and his/her staff.  I found home remedies worked well for me - conspitation was my constant companion during my chemo therapy.  Ouch ... Yikes ...

    Hoping you find relief - and soon.

    Strength, Courage and HOPE for a Cure.

    I have bad gas. I use extra

    I have bad gas. I use extra strength Gas-Ex. I usually get the biggest package if the green ones. It says 2 a day but sometimes I take more if I'm going out. I don't know why I never put 2&2 together & blamed the chemo. Lol.
