Gurrrrgle gurrrrgle gurrrrgle gurrrrgle
The past few days now I’ve had a very talkative stomach. Before and after meals Devin can hear my
stomach conversations from the other end of the home.
No amount of grass eating or pumpkin/yogurt mix has helped
me. Yesterday I was at my worst. I had a huge case of the gurgles going
on. I let out a few cries from my bed
and settled right now. Too much tummy
chatter! Devin and I went on a few walks;
I made the most of them and had several good solid poops (not so much towards
the end). Nana always says when you don’t
feel well you should go for a poop. *hehe*
Apparently going for a poop is the solution for a lot of
ailments.
With such a talkative stomach Devin sought out the liquid
pepto. All I can say is, Really Devin?
Did you honestly think I was going to drink that?? Devin measured out some pepto and placed it
in my bowl for me. I got up and out of
my bed thinking I was getting a wonderful snack. I took one sniff of the OVERPOWERING PEPPERMINT
and looked at Devin and walked away – back to my bed. Pfft Humans, sometimes..honestly…
Devin went out yesterday after my tummy shh’d itself. Before leaving I was given a KONG; I sniffed
it took a few licks then lay beside it – completely uninterested.
As Devin got ready to leave, I got up and went to my bed. Nana came and checked on me a few hours later. I didn’t feel much better, Nana offered me a KONG and I refused it. I didn’t even touch the one that Devin left for me. That was the defining moment for Devin and Nana to know that I was definitely not feeling my best yesterday.

When Devin arrived home, we went for a decent walk. I had a
lot of pep in my step. At the halfway mark to returning home I skipped over to
the grass and all broke loose; heavy emphasis on “loose”. Devin said that he has never seen anything
like this come out from me before. Wait
that’s a lie, but Devin only witnessed the aftermath when I got terribly sick
from the Laughing Cow Cheese. *ack*
When we arrived home, Devin prepared my dinner of Kibble for
me. I gobbled that up.
Devin went looking for the homeopathic kit that was
purchased from CAMP
GREYHOUND – Karen. It’s been a real life saver. I was given a dosage of Aresenicum Album and we called it a
night.
This morning my stomach feels almost 100% better. No gurgling and I had a wonderful solid poop.

While Devin gets ready for work tomorrow, I’m spending my day going from couch to bed, to my new bed, to my old bed, to Devin’s bed and back to the new bed. You get the idea.

Hai Milo,
ReplyDeleteMom wanted me to tell you that the folks over at greytalk.com often suggest simethicone (GasX, Phazyme, Ovol) for gurgly stomach. It breaks up tummy gas so it's easier to burp out. Though apparently hookworms can cause gurgly stomach too, so if it keeps happening regularly, then maybe a visit to the vet would be in order?
BTW, I LOVE your new bed. I wish mom would get me one, but she tells me that 4 beds is enough for one dog.
Hey J.J.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the suggestions to help with my tummy. All seems to have worked itself out, just a few bad days. I'm back on track :)
You tell your Mom that 4 beds is not nearly enough for a prince! :)
