I appreciate your situation. The solution to your gas problem (at least it has been for fe) is high high fiber (both soluble and insoluble) and low low fat diet - generally in the form of a raw food diet though not totally and a completely vegetarian diet. I eat no meat of any kind ever. I try to eat as little fat as reasonable and I plan what I eat. Never ever eat fast food of any kind. No high fructose corn syrup and NO aspartame and NO MSG! Only whole grains.
I feel amazing now. I've lost about 40 lbs without really "trying" and I wake up with energy and I feel great. Don't get m wrong - I still get gas some but nothing at all like it use to be.
Have a food allergy test panel done too.

I sympathize with you on this problem. I am sitting up now with some pretty bad chest pain, gas and frequent bowel movements. I also get an occasional pvc. I as well have been through all the tests and actually had my gall bladder removed, thinking it was the culprit but that didn't change a thing. I also am now on prevacid, 5-6 months and it feels like it helps me very little to not at all. I hope you find a way over this IBS and just wanted to say you're not alone.
It is the zetia!!!!!
I have really bad gas and feel like my body is going to explode sometimes. Also, when I burp it tastes like gas and eggs. What is going on with me?
