When i was younger i got alcohol poisoning
from a night out with my friends. Since
alcohol effects the liver does anyone know
anything about if the liver can give out
nasty, fart smelling odors? Does anyone
know what the liver is capable of doing
while damaged?

fecal body odor Posted: 06-23-08 21:43pm
Wow. I'm wondering the same thing myself.
I've had a fecal odor since I was 13, I'm
33 now. I have a sulfur/rotten egg odor
that comes off of me. There are two
different odor types. One smell is very
explosive- giving off a very concentrated
rotten egg odor. I was thinking this might
be from a malfunctioning illiocecal valve
since the odor comes on so quick. The
other is a sulfur/garbage smell that
lingers off of me. It will go away when I
take a shower but comes back 15 minutes
later. I have tried just about everything
I have read up on. Chlorophyll, cleanses,
herbal laxatives, enzymes, probiotics,
glutamine powder, etc. I just had a
colonoscopy and an endoscopy done,
everything was fine except for an
inflammed stomach which I got protonix
for. It seems like triggers are alcohol,
coffee, smoking, and acid juice like
orange juice. As of 3 months ago I quit
drinking alcohol/beer which I use to drink
a lot of. I thought the smell would go
away but it happened again when I went to
a AA meeting a couple days ago. I got a
panel of blood done and everything was ok
except for uric acid was high and some
liver inflammation. AST (SGOT) 119 and
ALT (SGPT) was 117 and this was a while
back. The numbers aren't all that high but
when I got a cat scan my liver was really
shiny and the lady asked if I drink
alcohol. I recently went to a gastrologist
and he said there is nothing he can do for
the smell. He said it is probably a
genetic thing and that everybody has there
own body odors. I tried to tell him this
is not your everyday odor. That I could
make a cafeteria evacuate in nothing flat
with this odor. He doesn't know what to
say. It was my primary Dr. that gave me my
blood test. All my gastrologist ordered
was the colonoscopy and endoscopy with no
blood tests or anything. Anyways, I too am
wondering if this could be a liver problem
that is causing the smell. However, the
gastrologist said there is absolutely no
connection he can think of. Anyone have
anything like this or any information that
could help me? Thanks, Wesley

ALL US WHO ARE SUFFERING FROM THIS
HORRIBLE DEBILITATING CONDITION, PLEASE,
IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE LISTENING TO
OUR PLEAS AND CRIES, COME UP WITH A CURE
OR SOLUTION TO WHY WE ARE EXPERIENCING
