It's not funny, but my burps smell like eggs?


This has been happening to me for some months now. It has NOTHING to do with me eating eggs; I know because I haven't eaten eggs in weeks. I've looked up my condition and the symptoms and it's said to be something called 'giardia', but I don't think I had anything to eat which was contaminated. I really need to find a solution to treat and get rid of this problem ONCE AND FOR ALL. Plus, I'm due to begin exams like two weeks from now, so I really need a solution fast before I feel nauseous in exams and then I can't do my exams to the best of my ability.

Oh yes, the symptoms I've been getting for a while are this:
1) Eggy, sulfurous-smelling burps
2) Abdominal pains, similar to cramps a woman gets when she's having her period
3) Diarrhoea
4) Nausea and the feeling to vomit
5) Vomiting

I'm only looking for serious people with serious answers to this question. It's not a funny matter at all. I'm pretty worried here and I hope that this situation won't get worse. Thank you in advance.

I also have this condition where I haven't seen my period for almost a ... *gasp* ... year? I'm not sure, I doubt the two could be linked but is there some chance that both problems are? I have no idea about anything anymore! Anyway, I did check out the lack of period with a doctor and it could be PolyCystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS. I have some cysts in my ovary which were identified by a pelvic ultrasound, and they needed me to come in to check my blood, but my mom doesn't want me to go because I'm about to undertake exams and if the news could be upsetting, there could be a chance that I won't be able to do well in exams so that I lose out on my dream of getting an open scholarship. I know, pressure!!! What should I do? Should I go to the doctor in any case?

Fibrocyts are very serious health concerns. They can rupture and cause havoc on the lining of your pelvic area and cause an infection. Infection in this area is very serious. I had a cyst rupture once and it hurt like hell. usually if there is more than one it requires surgery. These fibroid with mess with your bodies ability to maintain a normal hormone balance which is why no period.
As for the other in my opinion you have Gardia, if you have been camping or anything that was near or in a lake then that is the problem. Gardia is caused by protozoa from animal feces and these animals feces will wash into water near the shore. So if you didn't boil your water long enough before putting food in it or drinking right from the shore or even sometimes from the middle of a lake then this is your number one possibility. The only way to get rid of it is anibiotics, your symptoms will go away, but Gardia has a nasty way of creeping back up again and will present with the same symptoms. I do not think that the 2 are related at all

seriously, go to the doctor.

I had this for years! Get some over the counter pepcid and take it daily. It is stress related, your stomach is producing too much acid

seriously go see a doctor. It could be an ulcer. You should have it checked.

If your self-diagnosis is correct in that
you do indeed have giardia, then
this is an infection of protozoa.which can
be any of many tiny one or 2 celled
amoebas etc, which are parasites and
live in the intestinal tract.
I would ask if you drink out of a well
or creek, etc.
You need to see the doctor who will
do some fecal slides to see just what
the parasite is. He may ask you to do
a home fecal test.
This is fairly common on poorer
countries where the water is not
purified. It can be easily treated so
that the parasites are killed. The
Public Health Dept. should be notified
if you are drinking contaminated water,
so they can protect others and also
make the city or town clean up the
water supply.

see a doctor immediately ! this might be ur colon !!!

i have this happen to me all the time! take pepto and drink lots of water it works for me everytime

That's right you will only find out through tests. See a doctor soon as possible. This is a must. I could only guess what you could possibly have and that wont help.
GOOD LUCK

If this is intermittent it is most likely a sour stomach. Caused by something you ate, not necessarily eggs. Get from the drug store some Rhubarb soda. A table spoon or two will resolve this. I learned this from a gastroenteroligist I used to work with.
Now, if this and the laundry list of other problems occurs frequently or are ongoing, see a Dr.

This is no laughing matter. Your health is the most important and you are having some concerning symptoms, related to the off-smelling burps. If is a form of bacterial contamination, better to take care of it before it advances to something more serious. As far as PCOS and your period, a year is too long not to have a period. I would be very concerned that they are not interrelated.

First stop worrying you are making it worse.You need to see a doctor regardless. Your body is your temple, if you want a clear mind ,Get a physical, Start eating Healthier, You need to do a cleanse.Positive thinking will help you through. Out with the negative. It really sounds like it has manifested from stress and worry as well, so stop worrying right now.And think... what can you do to make things better. Your inner voice will tell you..Listen.
