stacdliw Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 I saw your post on the Mestinon topic and you complianed about having difficulty belching and passing gas.I have gastroparesis and I'm a member of a gastroparesis support group. A poster many years ago shared a recipe that is used in hospitals to help patients with trapped gas issues. She claims that it really helps, though I've never used the recipe myself. The recipe is quite simple: mix equal amounts of Dr. Pepper and warmed Cranberry Juice, then drink.Hope it works!Good Luck!Bev Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue1234 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Bev Ray, thanks! I guess I'll give it a try next time I get the awful bloating. It cycles, for some reason(if I had menstrual cycles, I would then think it was hormone related). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potsgirl Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 A home remedy that works certainly beats more medication, but for gas issues, I've found the generic of Gas-X to be quite helpful (Target, Wal-Mart).Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
