Eta - sorry i had the wrong wifey!

Hehe I must have missed the wrong wifey thing! No, it's all over he was bloated so big he looks like I did the night before I gave birth to our son. it's already eased a little bit with all the simethicone.

Because it was urgent care not a gastroenterologist I never got an explanation other than intestinal spasms.
Hopefully he will get his butt (no pun intended) to the doctor and get some medicine to have on hand next time.
Hope you have a better day tomorrow!

Y'know I don't recall that story - but you probably did tell it before, because i talk about h's gas issue often enough. gut muscle relaxers - i will ask the dr about that possibility when i call for the appointment. thanks!

well - the only thing he did different the last couple days was last night, he drank probably 3 glasses of wine and he never ever drinks wine. he usually drinks beer. wonder if it mighta been the wine, it wasn't as bubbly as champagne, but you never know!
I just heard the tv come on, so that's a good sign.
