What Causes Gas In Torso And Chest?

Ok, so yesterday my fiancee and I made guacamole- we are big fans of the avocado and eat it fairly regularly without reactions. Well yesterday, my fiancee- when she cut it in half, it was normal except for what looked like a little black nut- I didn't get a good look- but it wasn't a bug or anything. She is a microbiologist and thought that perhaps it had begun to germinate. Also the large seed, was unusually pale- but the flesh looked fine. I ate a good amount yesterday and I have been feeling quite ill today- but not just sick to my stomach. I have been feeling as though my organs are being pushed on, and not my digestive tract as if it were gas, I am feeling this in my mid to upper torso- it feels just strange really and its been going on all day. I had a starbucks about 5 hours ago and that seemed to help for a while, but now I am feeling off again. Now my fiancee is feeling the same sensations in her chest- and this correlates well with her having eaten more of the guacamole today. I've already looked on the web- and this does not fit any of the allergic reactions with avocados, nor have we ever had reactions in the past. So please, if anyone has any ideas- I am just hoping we don't need to go to the hospital tonight.

Hi,

As per the description, it is indicative of infection through guacamole, giving agony of symptoms to both. Primary tips for better results:

- Consume more liquids in sessions.
- Prefer organic fresh fruits, bland, vegan diet.
- Take capsule Pantoprazole (40 mg) with sips of water on empty stomach.
- Consult your doctor as per the requirement.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
