Reply to "Severe Diarrhea & Gas"

Thank you for the response. My doctors won’t give me the specific recommended  drug as I mentioned above. When I fast the gas does not improve. It is a possibility that I’m taking in some air while sleeping I will have to look into this further. High dose probiotics such as VSL 3 do not seem to help. I have not experimented with fiber much, I’m afraid of psyllium husk causing blockage. Do you take powder or capsule & powder or “full husks” as they say (which is still a powder). I disagree I understand that gas is an extremely common complaint/issue of j pouchers and everyone has different solutions. Also I will look into digestive enzymes. I’m not a fan of beano anyways as it’s ineffective other than eating it with beans or crucifurious veggies and I do not eat those foods. Ironically beano contains sorbitol is known to cause gas and diarrhea. Thank you.
