Please Pass the Gas

WEEK 19
For 2 days now I've been rendered achy by a large gas bubble lodged just below my left rib cage. The pain isn't so much a constant one, but is very painful. I tried all of my usual tricks, shouting, "full steam ahead!" to my GI tract to flush out this gaseous mass. But to no avail.

Here's a list of some of my failed remedies:

• Pooping (obvious)
• Laying down (all positions)
• Simethicone, Code Name: GAS-X (OD'd)
• Palapation (paltry)
• Yoga Ball - Bounce to Relief (none)

It wasn't until last night that I brought in the Big Guns; my husband's two popeye'd drumming arms. In combination with his pocket rhythms and my now-trademarked Rotissery Rotation™ methods, the gas slowly made its escape. Let this be a tip for future sufferers...Shiatsu the poop out of that gas!!
