Is flatulence a common side effect of taking St. John's Wort? I started
taking SJW a month ago and since then I've been farting up a storm,
especially at night time. I'm taking 900mg, all before bedtime, because
it
makes me very sleepy, so can't take it during the day, gotta work.
Anyway,
no sooner do I go to bed than I can feel the gasses swelling up inside my
abdomen, and the farting starts soon afterwards. It's pretty loud and
frequent, lasts all night long, and is at it's worst by morning. It's
kind
of embarassing. Even the neighbors can hear it in the next door
apartment!
What can I do? I don't want to have to stop the SJW, although truth be
told I can't feel a difference in my depression, but if that is what's
causing this problem, then I'll just stop, because I'd rather be depressed
and gasless than cheerful and gassy. Help?
There's an abundance of super-hero movies being
made at the moment, write a screenplay and base
it around yourself - The Voluminous Farting Person
Howard Stern's Fartman has already done it.
p.s., how does the original poster know he's farting up a storm at
night? ;)
