Question 1

My partner has had constant belching, bloating, and loose motions since yesterday gone to the bathroom over 12 times already. He can't leave the house because he's recovering from sepsis surgery. Is there any way to get a doctor to come to our place? What could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

Your partner's symptoms of constant belching, bloating, and loose motions, particularly the frequency of bathroom visits (over 12 times in a day), warrant seeking medical attention. These symptoms could indicate a variety of conditions, including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), food poisoning, or other infections. A doctor can properly diagnose the cause and recommend appropriate treatment.

Question 2

I'm having some stomach issues and it's got me worried. A couple of weeks ago, I started experiencing anxiety, a burning sensation in my stomach, constipation, and bloating. I saw a gastroenterologist and he prescribed me Rablet D for my stomach and Prothiadan 25 for my sleep and anxiety. Thankfully, my sleep and anxiety seem better now, and the burning sensation has mostly gone, except for that warm feeling when I eat something spicy or from outside. However, I'm still concerned because my stool isn't clearing properly and I feel gassy. My endoscopy came back normal, but my stool is mainly yellow or pale yellow, and I'm worried it might be a sign of malabsorption. I eat out a lot but I don't drink much and I'm a nonsmoker. There's also this knotty feeling on the side of my stomach and some slight back aches when my bowel isn't clear. Could you advise what my next step should be?

Accepted Answer

Given your persistent gas, indigestion, and yellowish stool despite normal endoscopy results, consult your gastroenterologist about potential malabsorption issues, and consider further tests, such as stool tests for pancreatic elastase or fecal fat, breath tests for small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or a hydrogen breath test to assess carbohydrate absorption, to determine the underlying cause and guide treatment.

Question 3

I'm really struggling with acidity whenever I eat junk food like vada pav or pani puri. It's like my body just doesn't agree with the things I love. Do you have any tips or remedies that could help me manage this acidity so I can enjoy my favorite foods without feeling uncomfortable afterward?

Accepted Answer

no

I'm dealing with a lot of hyper acidity, and I've noticed I occasionally get palpitations. All my tests like blood work, ECG, and Echo are normal, but these palpitations have me worried. Is it possible that my acid reflux is causing these palpitations?
