What Causes Flatulence After Taking Crystal Meth?

After going on a crystal meth binge for two weeks, I m having horrible gas. I m not eating a lot of sugar, but I have increased my probiotic intake, fiber intake and protein intake which I know all can cause flatulence. Problem is, the gas smells methy like it does when I m still using. I haven t used in 10 days.

Well.. if the drug is out of your system for over a week and you still have symptoms, then maybe it isn't the drug. Protein and some odd sugars can cuase flatulence. Typical advice is to remove certain things from the diet entirley and see fi the problem goes away. Lower the protein. Certainly beans are well-known to cause flatulence, not due to the protein but due to starches that are not digestible. Beans would certainly be out of the diet.
