    Just remember to take your disolvable codine tablets - even ifyou think you dont need them.  try drinking peppermint tea, i used windeze chewable to help with the trapped wind too x keep moving around and also try doing windmill movements with your arms when its really bad as it helps to disperse.  Painful but it will pass and come in waves. xx
