: Have you been evaluated for lactose or gluten intolerance? Liver,pancreatic &amp; gall bladder status &amp; function OK? In addition to avoiding gassy foods &amp; beverages, try taking mylanta 1/2 hours after meals and as needed to prevent &amp; treat gas buildup. You may wish to obtain a second opinion from another gastroenterologist.
