Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there! I'm curious if anyone is suffering from crippling gas. This is my second time to the rodeo and did not experience pain in my neck, collar bone and or upper chest before. It moves around and I burp, burp burp all of the time but it's painful. Anyone?

Yes all the time. I feel as though each time I do the diet the gas gets worse

If i didn't know my heart was in 100% shape I'd be concerned about Covid 19, sometimes it hurts so when i take a deep breath. Interesting that it's worse for you as well. Thank goodness I won't be on it too long. I was on steroids and had gained 10 lbs so once it's off, I'll quickly get off of 3-4 packets a day!

@evincive Covid 19 has nothing to do with a strong heart. If you have the symptoms, you should be tested.

@masseur i know you mean well. I just got over a viral pulmonary thing, just before the outbreak. That's not at all what's going on i have no other symptoms other than excruciating pain (from the gas) but truly, thanks for your concern!

@evincive  Stomach problems were one of the lesser symptoms, that’s why I mentioned it. My daughter had two symptoms but they wouldn’t test her because she didn’t have enough symptoms. She just had the antibody test and was positive for having had the virus. It’s a scary time, for sure.

I would read the labels of the different IP products you are using because some contain more sugar alcohols and that can results in an increase of gas(digestive issues). If you don't digest it well, the sensitivity grows with exposure. We have plenty of great products with little or no sugar alcohols.

@masseur thanks for this info. what is considered “high” sugar alcohol content. Do you know if this sugar alcohols were increased w the REformulation of products? I eat the cereal every morning and have been eating those new chocolate clusters. Every day. Maybe that’s it?

@evincive That info wasn’t from me.

Is it on the right side? The phrenic nerve runs through your gallbladder and up into shoulder/neck that can cause pain where you describe.

It is now! I do have a degenerative disk at C5-C6 so I'll put a call into my Dr and ask. thanks Rochelle! I'm about to bail if I can't get this straightened out. Not worth pain for 10 lbs.

@evincive I am going to send you a message. Good luck!
