Reply to "Horrible butt burn and gas is killing me!"

Your description sounds much more severe than the usual "butt burn" people experience. I'm 50 and have had my pouch since I was 23 so I have had some of those agonizing experiences, but never repeatedly, for such a duration. I'm concerned this is way more than something you deal with on your own. Are you reluctant to call your doctor and ask for more help? Feeling like you're going to pass out is very dangerous - especially in the night when no one else is up to hear you fall over.

Your weight loss is also severe so please don't be afraid to be a nuisance to your doc and don't be one of those guys who doesn't go to the doc until it is catastrophic!

Sorry I have no direct advice on this except to say it should not feel the way you are describing.
