I had a ruptured disk that was removed so now i have hardware between l3 and l4....nerve damage in both feet and legs....now i have degenerated disks and they say there's nothing more they can do....after the surgery they put jell between the disk and tailbone....got hurt in 2004 had surgery in 2009....never had any kind of therapy....i have spells so bad that i fall...this happened so often i learned how to fall without hurting myself to bad....my tailbone looks horrible and now they want to cut off the meds for the ones that don't need them. I have went thru panic and anxiety attacks and all they say is there is nothing more i can do. I live in Houma la and on medicaid and not one Dr in this surrounding area takes Medicaid...they have me on norcos and muscle relaxers but wonder why you in pain....how can you rate pain....I'm so used to the pain it's like my best friend and they wonder why i stay so depressed and don't want to be around anyone....i have to lay down so much I'm losing muscle in my upper and lower body.....any advice will be appreciated......take care

GI bloating can be an indication of so many things. Be firm ask questions keep asking until someone gives you an answer/treatment. Some medications can do this but don't assume. Good luck.

Hi
I get bloating as well. I have tried peppermint tea I find this helps after a meal. I have also tried activated charcoal which helps also to relieve wind, bloating etc also more little meals a day might help with digestion. And you can get a herbal tablet called digest Eze to help with digestion of meals less bloating. Hope this helps.
