Gas & vision

by gunritr, Oct 22, 2007 07:57AM
My wife suffers from a unique problems that the doctors tell her is not linked but we know it is. She will experience blurred vision when she developes stomach gas. It can be intense at times. She is presently battling macular degeneration with good results but the gas problem is still around.

What can we do to counteract this unusual condition?

Thanks,

Ritchie

I can't explain that connection either but try simethicone (Mylanta Gas Tabs) for the stomach gas.
