Irritable bowel syndrome along with certain food intolerances can cause these symptoms. Try to determine food triggers. Avoiding gassy foods&gassy beverages as well as taking simethicone 1/2 hour after meals can reduce gas buildup. I would also try taking activated charcoal which can reduce gas & bloating. Your gastroenterologist may also have suggestions for you.
