Has anyone experienced primarily extreme nausea / pain and gassiness especially after eating after having covid. It was a primary and continuing symptom of my mom after getting covid in 3-20. No diarreah or constipation, Has anyone tried probiotics or any natural concoction. I do not want to be too judgmental but it seems her doctors seem to not put too much thought into it because she is 92. Paid enough attention to what she eats to rule out any type of food. I primarily posted because it seems most people have constipation or diarreah. It is severe after eating and right in the a.m. and subsides after those events. We've tried the 2 week Omeprazole regiment and it did not help. She has green tea with every meal

I am 3 months into taking a probiotic, prebiotic and an enzyme for digestion. This has definitely helped my gut issues but one needs to give it at least 12 wks. to get the full benefit. I try to eat more fruits and vegetables than the average person as constipation has still been an issue at times. When needed I use Miralax....which can be dosed based on what works for you.
My gut issues started in August, 2022 after a very mild case of covid in July. I think covid targeted my gut as that's where I am already vulnerable due to having had colon cancer 12 yrs ago.
