I’ve been farting a lot for my entire life, but especially while sleeping. I usually sleep on my side, curled up, but sometimes on my back. I don’t have any allergies or similar things that could be causing this as far as I know.

For example, last night was like this:

  • I lay down, I fart twice
  • I adjust my position, I fart again
  • I roll on my left side, I fart
  • I get up to fix my bed, I fart
  • I lay down again, I fart

This is rather unfortunate because I like sleep with my head under the blanket.

Edit: as for my eating habits, my diet has consisted mainly of granola with 2-4 per day and miscellanous fruit and vegetables for the last 4+ years.

    Might be a bit random, and perhaps a bit far fetched, but are you able to burp?

    I’ve been struggling with the same thing for most of my life and was diagnosed with R-CPD ( retrograde cricopharygeal dysfunction a couple of months ago. Fortunately there is a treatment that is as good as 100% effective for this diagnosis.

    (No burping = excessive flatulence)

      I burp every now and then and I think my amount of burps is pretty normal. (though idk how often the average person burps)
