It's my birthday and here I am in so much pain, I don't know which way to turn. It started about 5 o'clock tonight and hasn't stopped yet. I know it is gas because I am burping a lot too. Would love to hear from anyone who has gone through this. Hopefully there is some help out there for me.

When I start to hurt like that I put the heating pad on my tummy and drink fennel or peppermint tea. You can also try gas x. The ones that melt in your mouth work the best for me. Sorry you had a crummy birthday.

I know this is late but wanted to mention I've been having lots of stomach pain lately. I'm also pregnant. I have been feeling constipated, bloated and end up with sharp pains that just won't go away. Finally one night I took Tylenol for the pain and it really helps. Now I take Gas X as a preventative and Colace to keep things moving along. It's scary to be in that much pain where you can't move. I'm used to stomach pain due to diarrhea or having to run to the bathroom so this is all new for me. I've stopped panicking when it happens now. Anyway hope you had a good birthday. I've spent many b-days with some kind of a stomach problem.

Hi Debby, Congratulations! Yes I have used Tylenol too and it does help. I also picked up some Gas X today. I will try this next time I have a problem. I used to take Colace, but now take Heather's Acacia and this works much better. I finally know how much to take each day after much trial and error. I also bought her book on IBS. She has a lot of nice recipes that I am going to try also. Thanks so much for answering. It helps a lot to be able to talk to someone with the same PAIN problems. Hope you have a great Sunday..

Thanks for the suggestion for Gas X I tried it and it does work. Also I have taken Imodium Advanced (Anti-Diarrheal + Anti-Gas) this seems to help too.
