[|AI|]  Dear K, I am so glad to hear that your rectal cancer is in remission. Low platelet count could be the result of some form of chemotherapy you might have received after surgery. I am sure your oncologist will be monitoring the blood tests. As for excessive gas, there are several reasons. Some people ingest a lot of air like during smoking or during chewing a lot of gum. Intestinal gas is also produced fromfirmentation of certain foods. If you are lactose intolerant (Milk, Dairy)you can try switching to lactose free milk or lactate added milk. Eating too many fruits can also cause excessive gas. There is a product called "Beans" which does not require prescription. You can try taking that once a day. Essentially cutting back on fatty foods and have more protein rich foods and also limiting sweets combined with moderateexcercise would help you lose weight. Good health,
