Angel, it sounds like you're taking every anti gas thing imaginable. I couldn't keep up with a schedule like that.
Some people have a lot of luck with gas products like Gas-X or Beano. I haven't tried either, but something to consider.

What I really think is the problem is not what you're taking for the bloating but what's causing it. What foods are you eating? Are you avoiding all trigger foods? Carefully incorporating in insoluble fiber??? How are you preparing your foods, and when are you eating and how much. These things should all be considered.

You also might consider not drinking too much while eating - it can interfere with digestion. By all means, have a drink when eating but try to do most of your teas between meals. With all the tea you drink I would think you'd be going to the bathroom for another reason! (lol - teasing)

Try to review the trigger foods and how to eat in the dietary guidelines on this website. Maybe there's something you're missing. Finally, make sure you chew your food well and eat slowly. Gulping and chomping only make matters worse.

Let me know how you are doing.
Han.
