Suffer Retention Of Gases With No Bowel Movements. Had Fever And Chills. Uncomfortable Sleeping Postures. Remedy?

default
Posted on Wed, 25 Sep 2013
Question: I have retired with my wife a month ago to Guatemala. Everything has been fine until about 36 hours ago. I have this retention of gases with no bowell movements. The curious thing is that my left side hurt, which prevents me from lying down. Last night I slept, not very comfortably in a lazyboy chair. Yesterday I had chills and fever. Thanks to my wifes remedies the fever went away. I am drinking XXXXXXX Selser with lemon and salt. My wife gave me a couple of pills that are common in release of gas pressure here. But all I do is urinate about 5 times last night but no release in pressure from my side or bowels. Since I am in central XXXXXXX I may not be able to find a product here that you would find in the states. Any more helpful natural remedy would be appreciated
