My rottweiler’s gas is horrible, loud and so foul, it will peel the paint off the walls.
a day???
Humans got nothing on my two labs in the gas department.
This is not a laughing matter when someone’s social life is ruined and the Dr’s cannot get to the bottom of the problem with diet changes,over the counter drugs, etc.. When you stop going out to eat, stop going to church, stop going to social gatherings because of excessive gas, it almost effects the mind. Have seen three different Gastroenterologists, Internist and have also talk to my Oncologist. They have suggested various things but nothing has helped. Has anyone had this severe problem and what did they do to overcome this.

I’m sincerely sorry about your problem.
I had a former brother-in-law who stunk out our side of our duplex from the bathroom on his side.
Sister took him to a doctor who put him on some kind of charcoal capsule supplement. It seemed to help.
My grandmother used to fart alot. Whenever I would say “Aw gramma”, she’d always reply “well, better out than in”........
I wonder if he would improve if given probiotics to change his gut flora.
Mr Kitty and I have an Old English Bulldog. Her farts are so bad they can clear a room and have woken us from a sound sleep. (She likes to sleep on the bed between us)
Must be something about bull dogs.
Uhhh... wow. Thanks for sharing.
Are you taking medications that are contributing to the problem? Diabetic medicines in particular are really, really bad for this. There are different classes of medications that can be used, and sometimes there’s a way to work around a medicine that causes debilitating gas.
We were switching my medications around this summer. I was teaching Vacation Bible School where I would sit down with the kids aged 3 to about 10 in a fairly small room, and one day I told them that I take medicines that make me toot so if there was a bad smell it was probably me so don’t blame anybody else. I told them it was really embarrassing and it kinda makes me afraid of being with people but Jesus is too important for me to stay away just because of that. They looked at me with understanding eyes; kids are so cool, and these kids were some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I told them it was OK to laugh if it happened; just don’t blame anybody else for it. We had a good time with it once the issue of embarrassment was dealt with. My kids tell me I could get away with a lot more tooting if I didn’t start laughing myself and confess what I had done.
I use dirty diapers as an illustration of how sin is yucky (and dangerous) and we need to have it washed away regularly, so it all kind of tied together with the idea that we are both perpetrators and victims of our own fallenness, but there is peace in understanding that about ourselves and others and simply being forgiven.
Fortunately, my new doctor is helping me find medicines that work for me, and things are better, but I truly feel your pain. I hope and pray that you can get relief. If you are taking medicines that contribute, have the doctors addressed that?
Yeah, our English Bulldog can peel paint off a room with her toots. She does smeellys ,and she does them often.
As my late father, who claimed to smell many a mule fart growing up on a farm in the 20’s, used to say:
“Farting horses never tire, a farting man is the one to hire”.
It happened in my Uncle’s airplane. I was in the backseat with my cousins ... no window to roll down. I started dry heaving.
I think it was my Aunt.
They didn't name it the "wind relieving pose" for no good reason. Throw in a higher than usual percentage of vegetarians in any given yoga class and there you go.
LOL!
Find “Hitler’s Uncontrollable Farting Problem” on youtube.
BTW truth is stranger than fiction; Hitler’s vegetarianism really did give him unstoppable gas.
When my sister was in college she got a book titled, “Who Farted?” It’s just photos, and it’s hilarious.
The one I loved was a photo of a bunch of Marines in dress uniform for some kind of speech or somethinq.They’re all cramped toqether like in bleachers. Most of them are half asleep, but there’s one quy in the middle of them with a little smirk on his face.
I used to practically roll on the floor with laughter at that photo, combined with the title of the book.
Not just Bulldogs. My beloved old Lab could wake me from a sound sleep with one, and not due to hearing it, lol. I miss him, would gladly put up iwht that for many more years, the rest of my life really, if nature worked that way. Their lives are just shorter than ours, sadly.
And it’s usually me. lol
Sorry you don’t have much to do but I’m glad also because I thought the thing about your aunt Jane was funny and well done. Amazing how the mind can put together thoughts when they are idle. Very good, really.
