Ballooning bag at high altitude

Ballooning bag at high altitude

Have had ileostomy for over 30 years and live at sea level. Whenever I travel to see family who live at 8400 ft. I have a ballooning issue with my appliance. I use a Convetec product that has a vent/filter but it doesn't seem to work. Have tried GasX with minimal success. Any suggestions out there?
