thank you. i tried beano yesterday to see if it would cut down on my gas/bloating and i think because its an enzyme it just ended up at my anus and made butt burn worse. usually my butt burn is tolerable but last night i was in excruciating pain. make sense? any gas reduction tips. to be honest this feels like colitis again except i can hold it and theres no blood. i know people say it will feel that way but my brain cant wrap around feeling better in time. i feel hopeless some days and thurday morning we drive home to ny from florida. dilaudid will get me through. it really slows me down and lifts my spirits but i dont like using it. this is a special circumstance...
