Welll.....Ok, those of you that don't know me....understand that I have a weird way of approaching my subjects...so; here we go.
I always notice that when I start a new effective protocol/abx/rife/Samento...that my friends, family, and the genral public...shy away from me!!!
I mean....it only happens when I start an EFFECTIVE treatment.
Ok...I'll say it...I fart alot when the buggers are dying...OK? Is that good enough for you?
Seriously....I think this proves that A LOT of this is based in the gut.
Well..........anyone else out there got something to say?
Seriously, if you do...please sit a spell as we serve "cheese" and discuss this...with a little light heart "air".... lol
Trout
PS....Man, am I funny or what? However, this is a serious observation...believe it or not.

My goodness!
First the garlic "odor"...now this?
Your friends and family must really love you to keep coming back for more.
You could be in need of some digestive enzymes...LOL. These should help break down the food a bit better so your friends and family won't have to shy away from you.
I would try some acidophilus too.
A good enzyme supplement to look into is something called "Ultimate enzymes". You take it with your food. You can read more about them here: http://www.ultimate-enzymes.com/
Things quieted down quite a bit in my house after I started taking them.

Salutations Sir Fartsalot???????
God, I am rolling. This is the best I have seen in awhile!!!!!!!!!!
Let me take a minute to pick myself up off the floor.......
The little laughing mut is so cute!!!
Trout, you poor thing..... Has anyone tried to hang an airfreshner around your neck lately?
Are you freezing with all the windows open?
Ok seriously, I hate to admit it but......Yes, it is a big problem for me. Especially since I am around people all day and in meetings.
I have Candida. Real Bad. If I miss my enzymes or have a high sugar/flour diet or have had alcohol in any way with my meal.....LOOK OUT.
Also in the past while taking abx this would happen.
I keep my Candida & uhmmmmm (gas) under control with the enzymes. 10,000 mg Catalase & 5,000 mgs Superoxide Dismutase. 1 each, 2-3 times a day. 30,00 to 60,000 total a day.
If I miss my dose that morning, I have soup for lunch so that I do not have any surprises that afternoon.
I believe it is from the toxins that this happens. Just my opinon.

Not to put a dark cloud of disrespect over this subject....butt, if I wasn't on Probiotics...well...yes the enzymes too!!!
No more garlic, reduces the effect of my Samento....I can tell you that this is NOT from Candida folks.....
Surely, You know i've read up that while on the throne. :Confused:
Nope...it is from a bacterial die-off...I'll bet.
Oh, I gave up the "trout-ula" act, too for Halloween....you know....I'm sure...I posted here once about using my "inversion Table" to force the abx, and blood into my cranial area................
Thanks for Gassing up with Folks,
Trout

Well let me toot in on this one too, if I may.
This is a problem for me too. The abx's make it worse too. The other day my 7 year old son was in the van and trumpeted as it were, real loud too. We all looked at him. He proudly exclaimed, "Now I am a man just like dad!".
What's a guy to do?

I just can't stop laughing!! I am so sorry! We are a household of very immature people and farts just send us into hysterics. I just can't stop laughing at the responses to this thread. Superb senses of humor! Bravo! I am in tears!

"Flatulence occurs when a food does not break down completely in the stomach and small intestine. As a result, the food makes it into the large intestine in an undigested state. For example, if you are "lactose intolerant," it means that you lack an enzyme (lactase) in your intestine -- the enzyme that breaks lactose apart into two sugar molecules so they can enter the bloodstream. Without lactase, lactose passes undigested through the stomach and small intestine and arrives in the large intestine.
There, the lactose meets up with billions of hungry bacteria -- the natural "intestinal fauna" we all have in our large intestine. These bacteria are happy to digest lactose. They produce a variety of gases, in much the way that yeast produces carbon dioxide to leaven bread (see How Bread Works for details on yeast). Gases such as methane, hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide are common gases that these bacteria produce. Hydrogen sulfide is the source of the odor we associate with flatulence.
Certain foods produce more flatulence than others because they contain more indigestible carbohydrates than others. Beans, as you might expect, are particularly well-endowed in this regard.
Here are some interesting links:
How Food Works HealthWorld: Flatulence Fennel for Flatulence? What makes farts smell? The Whys and Wherefores of Wind: Flatulence Explained" www.howstuffworks.com/question46.htm
A healthy person releases almost half a cup of gas in a single fart (about 3 1/2 oz.). In one day, just over 2 cups of gas are released in farts (about 17oz. or just over half a quart).
From the book, The Gas We Pass...The Story of Farts by Shinta Cho
The above book was a birthday gift from my mom to my husband as a joke. He took it well!

Cant seem to clear the air tonight, huh Trout?
Anyways, I figured I would post you some very helpful tips. Ya never nose, they may help you some.
1.) Refrain from bending over in public. Forces the intestines to presurize the air in there. Definately only do this at home.
2.) IF at all possible, just refrain from GOING in public, and if you must, make sure your wife is behind you. ALways helps to have someone to blame things on.
3.) Swallow all the bubble gum you can find. You'll find out why later.
And when all else fails and enzymes, yeast treatment, abx back off and every other contraption or conconcion just totally fails...
Stick a tick tack up the ol wazoo and enjoy.
Couldnt resist.

well...is your stool different too? stool changes are a sign of die off right? so it seems to me like gas could be part of the mix. i think your die off theory is very plausable myself trout. besides, i've had a similar experience.
i was being treated with a QXCI machine for a month and the last two weeks i had massive headaches, sinus problems, weird stools and some of the worst gas imaginable. thank god my husband wasn't with me at the time. social pressure can be a hard thing.
my advice: try to find someplace where you can fart in peace.

My gut tells me your gut feeling is right here.
It will most likely stop when you stop with the meds.
I was at a group meeting Saturday. Got stiff sitting down so I got up to stand against a wall.
This memory thing with lyme is a big problem because I couldn't recall the name of the lady standing next to me.
When all those people looked over our way to see where the big noise came from it would have been a great time to call out her name.

Now you know why so many people have guide dogs. You can take them in with you everywhere these days. And they can't deny that 'it wasn't them.'
Honestly, I'm ROFL.
Charcoal underpants?
Fluff?
Sir Fartsalot?
And then there's Marnie I wonder how many keets are in a cup?

sO.....I also have 'sinus' problems when this happens.....so......I get drainage from that, too.
That is part of the problem....it should be noted that there is another thrad that talks about sinus 'run-off' and all, when they are herxing.
That is something that hits me also.
So...in theory, it snot what you always may stink it is.
Butt, I think it caomes from both the sinus thing AND my intestines...since they have been GETTING better.

Well, now when someone accuses you of malingering, you can tell 'em you're just farting around!
Activated charcoal capsules may help you.
It's funny; beans are supposed to have this effect, but since I started eating more healthfully (read: more veggies and beans), I have LESS of a problem. Interesting....
These 'keets want to make it all miserable for us. I guess they figure that if they're gonna die, they'll go out with a bang! Pun intended.
I swear. What with farting, acrid sweat, and sinus "run off," I don't want to leave my house.

Sobering post?
Perhaps this will make up for it?
An old man and his wife have gone to bed. After lying in bed for a few minutes the old man cuts a fart and says, "Seven points." His wife rolls over and asks, "What in the world was that?"
The old man says, "Touchdown. I'm ahead 7 to nothing."
A few minutes later the wife lets one go and says, "Touchdown. Tie score."
After about ten minutes the old man farts again and says "Touchdown. I'm ahead 14 to 7."
Now starting to get into this the wife quickly farts again and says "Touchdown. Tie score."
The old man strains really hard but, to no avail, he can't fart. Not to be outdone by his wife, he gives it everything he has and strains real hard to get out just one more fart. Straining real hard the old man tries so hard he poops in the bed.

Once there lived a woman who had a maddening passion for baked beans.
She loved them, but unfortunately, they had always had a very embarrassing and somewhat lively reaction to her.
One day she met a man and fell in love. When it became apparent that they would marry, she thought to herself, "He is such a sweet and gentle man, he would never go for this carrying on."
So, she made the supreme sacrifice and gave up beans. Some months later her car broke down on the way home from work.
Since they lived in the country she called her husband and told him that she would be late because she had to walk the rest of the way home.
On her way, she passed a small diner and the odor of baked beans was more than she could stand.
Since she still had miles to walk, she figured that she would walk off any ill effects by the time she reached home.
So, she stopped at the diner and before she knew it, she had consumed three large orders of baked beans!
All the way home she putt-putted, and upon arriving home she felt reasonably sure she could control it.
Her husband seemed excited to see her and exclaimed delightedly, "Darling, I have a surprise for dinner tonight."
He then blindfolded her, and led her to her chair at the table. She seated herself, and just as he was about to remove the blindfold from her, the telephone rang.
He made her promise not to touch the blindfold until he returned. He then went to answer the telephone.
The baked beans she had consumed were still affecting her and the pressure was becoming almost unbearable,
so while her husband was out of the room she seized the opportunity, shifted her weight to one leg, and let it go.
It was not only loud, but smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk in front of a pulpwood mill.
She took her napkin and fanned the air around her vigorously. Then she shifted to the other cheek and ripped three more, which reminded her of cooked cabbage.
Keeping her ears tuned to the telephone conversation in the other room, she went on like this for another ten minutes.
When the telephone farewells signaled the end of her freedom,
she fanned the air a few more times with her napkin, placed it on her lap and folded her hands upon it, smiling contentedly to herself.
She was the picture of innocence when her husband returned, apologizing for taking so long, he asked her if she had peeked, and she assured him that she had not.
At this point, he removed the blindfold, and she WAS surprised!!
There were twelve dinner guests seated around the table to wish her a "Happy Birthday!!!"

Or some of the other OTC remedies for this "special" problem?

OK guys i did a "search" on this topic and found this post. OMG so funny!!!
Seriously, im following the anti-yeast diet and im eating a ton of veggies. It gets ridiculous at night after dinner, i need a special room in my house to "relax" and be me.
This is a very annoying problem. Could i be taking too many probiotics? Am I eating or taking SOMETHING i shouldnt? I bought Gas-X but its not really helping.

ME TOO! With the left arm. Its so weird right? I could go days without deoderant and never even think about it.
This past year, for some weird reason, i have noticed an odor. I really have to smell my shirts after i wear them (dont laugh) but there is a different odor that i have never had.
