me at 8 am, who was a fool: "i haven't been that gassy lately what if i skipped the simethicone today as an experiment"
me, later: "oh my god i am in so much pain"
i knew my gut biome is totally fucked, but i don't think i understood how much the simethicone was helping. my doctor didn't even tell me to do that one, I just noticed i was gassy in a way that was definitely not normal after i got on the other meds for the other gut symptoms.
