Bloated And In Pain

[Chrissyb]

I have tried searching and sorry but I just can't find the posts that talk about what will help the bloating. I am not sure what casued it, since I have had a touch of the stomach flu but that was getting better but after taking my night times meds my stomach just went haywire last night. I feel like I am pregs and so much pain. The bloating is up high above the belly button.

Here is what I have already tired:

Slippery elm tea

Peppermint tea

Probotics

Aleo Vera Gel

I am not able to get to the store and my husband is working two jobs so he not able to get there either. If there is anything anybody can think of that I might have on hand that would be awesome. A straight pin to pop my stomach has crossed my mind

Good deal with what you have tried so far!

Next I would take some baking soda in water. If that isn't enough, an hour later try taking a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in water. You can repeat this regime as long as needed. Don't take both vinegar and baking soda at once since otherwise you will fizz!

Do you have any idea why you are feeling this way? Did you eat something wierd? Too much quick carbs or sugar or what? Or do you think its residue of the stomach flue still? I suggest not eating any uncooked veggies or hot spices. I have reacted like that to onions on occasion...

Hi.

I'm so sorry you're hurting. When I get that way (soy for me) I do the baking soda trick (1 1/2 t. in a glass of water) that was mentioned. It doesn't cure, but it does definitely help.

Hope you feel better soon.

Yolo, I am trying to think back to what I ate yesterday but brain fog. The bloating did happent though until just before I went to bed right after I took my night time meds but I know that real doesn't mean too too much. I know we had pasta, peas and pork chops for dinner, but my stomach was feeling ok then.

I will go try the backing soda. I have a question about the apple cider vinger and it may be a dump one. I can't eat apples the make my stomach burn, is the vinger going to do the same?

Thank you for your help.

I don't know about the vinegar. I do know I can't eat apples but can have the vinegar. But my "allergy" or reaction is I think to the fructose since I seem to not handle eating any fruit except lemons and cranberries! However given your sensitivity to apples, maybe don't use the vinegar. Straight lemon juice in water on the other hand might function similarly...without bothering you.

Am wondering if the pork chops were too heavy for you to digest after having the stomach flu. Again the lemon juice would help your digestion. You might investigate using HCL tabs when you have a heavy meat meal... or just take the lemon juice in water...
