A hint to those with the quick step.

I have been having a distinctly personal problem lately. We're talking one that was bothering me. I was having a case of the shits that wouldn't end.

We're not talking that occasional Hershey Squirt, we're talking it's been on a daily basis for quite a while. Then I talked with one of the M.D.'s on my floor.

We talked about this for more than a bit and he asked if I drank Beer. Of course I drank Beer. I'm of Germanic decent and I'm a Biker. He nodded and offered me a test. He told me to cut out the beer. He gave me some options and I took them. (One of them being Tequila.) He also told me to give it a couple of days. (He too likes a drink or two in the evening.)

Well Gee and Holy Shit Batman. No longer am I painting the toilet bowl. No longer am I limited as to the distance I can go from the john.

I mentioned this to the M.D. and he just smiled.

It turns out that many people react to the yeast in Beer and don't know it. As we talked he mentioned how many people he has run into with this problem, people who were hesitant to mention it. (Who wants to talk about a permanent case of the shits?)

So now I drink the occasional beer but I keep it to a minimum. I prefer to keep from feeling like I'm blowing lit fuel out my backside.

Don't have that problem now or back in the states but when I was stationed in Germany I was never constipated, believe me!
 
Lactose intolerence will do the exact same thing. Only you get that bowling ball in the stomach feeling and god awful smelling gas. I adore milk and dairy products but I have to take pills (lactaid) with every serving. It gets a little expensive.

Believe me when I say I can clear a room without trying.

I like my beer but I'm thinking I may have to stop drinking it. If Tequila or other drinks will stop this then I can see myslef drinking them to have a normal life.

When my Artillery unit would go out and do field excersises, we would get milk in those little paper cartons like you get in grade-school... and I swear that my section chief was lactose intoloerant... He could clear the entire gun-line with the farts that he let out after drinking those little cartons of milk.

LMAO I remember hearing about that. :D

Idea... go get a case of military MRE's.

Chow down on one of those AND have your beer... and everything balances out. The MRE's stop you up... the beer loosens it back. ;)

Of course... a nice margarita could solve the whole thing. :-D
 
Ah! Another sidewalk commando get his ass kicked by a brewskie. Sad.
 
hehe... I don't know whether to laugh now, or wait til later... and it has very little to do with the whole digestive thing.
