I Stink Please Help
Posted , 4 users are following.
ive had this medical problem for a long time but have had trouble getting help. my gp doesnt seem to take it seriously/ seem interested in addressing the problem and im beyond desperate. for years now ive had a problem which i suspect has got worse over the past year.
it seems that i begin to smell of literally whatever i eat, within 15 minutes of eating. the smell comes off me directly and can fill the room with an unpleasant version of the smell of whatever i have been eating. When i say literally everything mean literely everything. even sparkling water, or boiled chicken. and bloated whenever i eat certain things (takeaway pizza, processed ready meals for e.g.).
i cant deal with this situation much longer, the smell is so bad people become resentful of my presence, with people complaining as far as several meters away. its beyond embarassing and i cant seem to get a solution to this.

Ouch! That sounds like a real bummer... you need to get a referral ASAP to a good Gastroenterologist.
You may well have an issue like Crones or IBD... leaky guy (some do not think that is a real "disease")... do you have any symptoms besides the odors? Pain, trots, constipation, cramping, bloating?
Have you had a colonoscopy? Endoscopy?
I find that General practitioners can be REALLY lame, so get to a specialist!
I think I'd start taking a half teaspoon of baking soda once or twice a day, or get on Pepcid or Prilosec IF you have any stomach pain or acid reflux... but you need to go to a Specialist fast.
GL to you,!

see a specialist, in the meantime you might try a glass of warm (not cold, not hot, but just warm tap water) with 2 to 3 tsp of apple cider vinegar with mother before each meal. (if youre in the states best brand is Braggs, if Uk I dont know).i love the taste but if you dont you can add some honey. i had reflux, bloating, gas but after a couple weeks taking this ive been doing fine for months. medicine my doctor was giving me was doing nothing. Again, though you might try this until you can get a diagnoises.
