What Causes Excessive Stomach Gas?

default
Posted on Fri, 5 Dec 2014
Question: I am suffering from a lot of gas and the "trots".
What I am going to tell you will sound impossible, but I have several reasons to believe it is true.
For one thing I have felt a slight sensation near the top of my navel before I experience the gas.
I believe this is due to air being forced into my abdomen from the outside.

Brief Answer:
Irritable bowel syndrome can be the cause.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic. Dr. Ganesh.

1.There are two possibilities for the above cause, gastric in first place followed by the bowel pathology.
2.If its some thing you are experiencing these days - then you have to change your food habits - more of salads,fruits,fibrous diet for better bowel moment. Less of spicy / junk foods. Multiple small portions in regular interval of time.
3.If the issue is there of long time - then i would recommend to get a basic ultrasound abdomen and pelvis - just to rule-out solid organ involvement and to narrow down the diagnosis.
4.An CT abdomen will give the helpful information and condition of the bowel, before that endoscopy for stomach condition.
5.The air what you describing could be what formed in the abdomen - to conclude that please get the investigations started.

Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.

I know the air is being put into my gut. A group of hi tec people have the ability to do this. As well as send heat thru walls. I live in an apartment building and I know that it is possible for heat to be sent thru ceilings and walls.

I wanted to ask a gastroenterologist, but apparently did not get one.

Have vision problems which make it hard for me to read what I type and so make typos.

Need an open-minded gastro or do not want your companies service.

Brief Answer:
What you are saying can be right.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.

1.I would recommend to go through the investigations ( ultrasound scan, CT abdomen ) that will help to detect any kind of air.

2. Coming to gastro-enterologist you can get them in this site itself, but the option you have to choose is " ask a specialist" that way only gastroenterologist will answer your query. You have chosen ask any doctor so i have tried to answer your query.

3.For eye problem need to examine the version test.

Hope i have given a clarity about the query and how to proceed further.
Any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Wish you good health.
Dr. Ganesh.

Thank you, doctor, for agreeing that I might be right. You may be the person to help me. The air will be gone from my gut by the time I get to the doctor--so it will not show up.

So I will have no proof. I cannot stop those people doing this to me. And is it not true that my 75-year old gut could be damaged by this large and continued pressure---to the point that a hole could break in it and then contents leak out--and would this not be fatal---peritonitis??? (Please forgive spelling---I am not well and my ability in that direction is lessing as my problems with the people doing this to me increases.

Will you listen to my whole story??--you could break the news that people can be remotely damaged by certain forces.

Are you located in the USA or canada??? I have phone plan that will allow me to call long distance free. XXXXX

I could explain the situation from the beginning. I have a large hate-mongering group after me. I am basically innocent of all serious wrongdoing/lawbreaking. But this group has covenced my friends and relatives that I have done something terribly wrong and so no one will stand up for me--not even the doctors I have had for decades.

since I am located in Asian country, I will not be able to communicate much regarding the same.
I would suggest to see your GP and try to convince, as GP can physically examine if required.
