am i doomed?

For some reason at night, after I lie down, I get REALLY bad gas. I have not been diagnosed with anything, and have consulted with my physician as to what may be causing this problem. I have tried Gas X and other medications (e.g., Lomotil), but to no avail. I do not date seriously because of this issue, it is highly embarrasing. In fact, my ex - we had a great relationship and eventually went on vacation together where we did sleep in the same bed - broke up with me right after our return. This is seriously affecting my life and my chances at a relationship. I'm too embarassed to say anything, and I was wondering if anyone out there had any suggestions. My diet is fairly healthy, I workout, don't eat late, etc. I do have acid reflux and take Nexium in the mornings.

I feel like I'm doomed to be single forever because of this, and it really sucks.

From National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse:

"Most foods that contain carbohydrates can cause gas. In contrast, fats and proteins cause little gas. Foods that produce gas in one person may not cause gas in someone else, depending on how well individuals digest carbohydrates and the type of bacteria present in the intestines.

Some foods that may cause gas include

• beans
• vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, brussels sprouts, onions, mushrooms, artichokes, and asparagus
• fruits such as pears, apples, and peaches
• whole grains such as whole wheat and bran
• sodas; fruit drinks, especially apple juice and pear juice; and other drinks that contain high-fructose corn syrup, a sweetener made from corn
• milk and milk products such as cheese, ice cream, and yogurt
• packaged foods—such as bread, cereal, and salad dressing—that contain small amounts of lactose, a sugar found in milk and foods made with milk
• sugar-free candies and gums that contain sugar alcohols such as sorbitol, mannitol, and xylitol"
