Hello everyone I am currently 25 years old
and these stomach noises have been causing
me so many problems. I really started to
notice my stomach noises when I was like
19 years old. Once I graduated from my
university the stomach noises seem to have
gotten worse. I hate having to do any kind
of training, because I get soo scared that
my stomach will start to make some type of
noise. I actually had to resign from a
government job, because the training was 4
months long and I had to spend 80% of my
time in a quiet room. I was doing pretty
good for the first 4 weeks, but then I got
a tetaneous shot and a hepatitis shot and
everything went down hill.
I will have to go through another
training, which will be a week long, 8
hours a day. I wish I didn't have to do
this training, but I guess I have no other
alternative. I also want to get my
masters, but I guess I will have to try to
get it online. There are some schools like
Boston University, Michigan State, Texas
Tech, Florida State, Penn State and
University of Houston that offer degrees
online. I hope this helps for those who
are in school and hate going to class. I
am now trying to go to a career path that
does not make me work in a quiet
environment.
One thing that helped me a great deal
was taking fiber pills (metamucil). My
routine would start out like this, wake up
and try to do #2, then take 2 fiber pills
and have breakfast. I would like like 20
fiber pills with me, just incase I heard
any noises. I would have lunch and then
try to do #2 again and take 2 more fiber
pills. I would also take water with me and
also something to drink on that was
carbonated. I think that if you flush food
through your system, by using the
restroom, then this may help with the
stomach noises. It did for me until I got
the darn tetaneous and hepatitus shot.
One other thing that I noticed helped a
great deal was running or probably any
other excercise. I remember one time I had
to run 1.5 miles before lunch and I didn't
eat anything, I just drank water. I
showered and went to class and I was
thinking that I was sure to have stomach
noises. I was soo surprised that my
stomach did not make one noise.
I went to go and see a doctor in another
country (Mexico) since I don't have
insurance right now. He checked me out and
said that my heart beat is like off on the
11th beat or something like that. He said
that it was nothing to worry about, but
that this may be the reason for my stomach
noises. He asked if I had been excercising
lately and I said no. He asked if I had
any chest pains and I said a couple times
and he said that I should start to
excercise everyday. He also gave me this
medication, Creon and this other
medication. I am taking them right now,
but I don't know if they are really
working, since my stomach has been feeling
about the same. The doctor told me to stay
away from processed foods, such as
sausages and not to any spices (garlic,
pepper, cumin and other spices) he also
said not to eat any spicy foods. I am also
lactose intollerant, so I don't drink any
dairy products. I think I am also alergic
to glutons, so I stay away from wheat,
barly and oats.
One other thing that I have not done
yet, but am thinking about is taking milk
thistle to try to help my liver process
foods. I don't want to do this yet, until
I have finished my training. I don't want
to experiment right now before I go to
training.
Well good luck to everyone and I hope we
can deal with our problem. It would be
nice if we could all work for the same
company and we didn't have to worry about
our stomach noises.
PS: Stress is also something that causes
this. I guess when you get stressed you
let out some stomach acids and then that's
when you hear the noises. Sometimes eating
fresh fruits and veggies can also cause
stomach noises for certain people. I agree
with the person who said have protein. I
have eggs in the morning and that seems to
help.

Re: Intestinal Noises?? Posted: 10-08-07 15:10pm
Just to update everyone. I bought 2 boxes
of Paragone and a bottle of Milk Thistle
and a bottle of Acidophilus which is a
Probiotic. I took a pill of Milk Thistle
and Acidophilus last night and I did feel
better this morning, not as many stomach
noises. This morning I started the
Paragone and my stomach is making more
noises again. I hope this a good sign and
I hope that parasites are the root to my
problem and I hope Paragone kills them. I
will keep you posted on any updates on my
condition. I'm pretty sure I do have
parasites, because I have traveled quite a
bit and I have gotten sick several times
while abroad. I bought my pills at a
health store, but you can buy them cheaper
online, but I couldn't wait to start. I
would recommend the Milk Thistle and
Acidophilus for people to start out, but
if you think you may have parasites, then
I would also try the Paragone. Good luck
to everyone and keep everyone posted on
what you have tried and what works and
what does not. Thanks Eric

I remember posting that when I got a
tetanus shot and a hepatitus shot, my
stomach went CRAZY. I remember a lady
saying if you are alergic to yeast, then
you shouldn't take the shot. I didn't
really think much of it, but that had a
horrilbe reaction on me.
I was reading about a person posting
talking about the "Leaky Gut Syndrome"
then I was reading about yeast infections
and candida. I read in another post on
another site, about a person who got
tested for parasites, ibs and some other
things, but everything came back negative.
He did the cadida test and he had fungus
in his intestines. I was reading on a site
and it states that some causes can come
from alchol, sugar, antibiotics and a poor
diet. You can also do research on candida
and see if this may be your problem.
I can't wait to get working again, so
that my insurance can kick in and so that
I can go and get tested for candida.
I have been taking Paragone, Milk
Thistle, Probiotics and Metamucil fiber
pills and they seemed to help, but these
last couple of days have not been good on
the stomach. AHHHH this is such a problem,
I feel like getting an intestine
transplant or something.
Sorry if you see my posts in other
locations, but I'm just trying to spread
the little info I am learning to as many
people as I can.
ehealth forum is also good and there are
other people on there. I think we should
all go into one forum though, it would
make it a lot easier, just my two cents.
Well best of luck to everyone and I'll
start running again, as I was too tired to
run last night. Running use to help, so I
hope it starts to help me now. Take care
everyone.
