Experiences with

Activated charcoal

I don't know if this is connected with my cirrhosis (non-alcohol related, and compensated at present) but I am getting frequent spells (4 or 5 bouts bouts a month) of stomach upsets-- (sorry for details) diarrhoea, foul smelling wind etc, no vomiting), I am treating it with activated charcoal capsules

I've also tried Activated Charcoal tablets that have had little to no affect. Is there anything anyone can suggest that would ease these feelings and the excess gas? I think if I can get a hold on this, together with the FODMAP trial, I can really get a hold of my symptoms. Thanks :)

I'm currently taking prescribed Mebervine and activated charcoal tablets although nothing really seems to work. Sorry for the long post, I'm at a bit of a loss with all this and am really struggling mentally with it at the moment, lockdown isn't helping but I just want some relief from it all.

I've tried the following methods to help but nothing has worked : Activated charcoal, peppermint tea (actually makes my cramping worse), buscopan, eating slowly, breathing techniques, exercise daily, eating little and often.
