Asking for Self, Male, 23 years old, Karachi
For over 3 months, -Feeling nausea (persistent since 3 months), bubbling sounds in the stomach (usually after eating), sometimes bubbling feeling in the throat. - Spotted red spots in stool (3-4 in one movement) - Squeezing sensation in upper-middle abdomen after eating. - Have anxiety (GAD) (it's a lot better than before) -weight down from 60 to 57kg. -VitaminD deficient (took supplements) -Feel like food isn't digesting properly -Sedentary lifestyle since a few months
It gets fine for a week but these symptoms come back again. What could be the cause?
In young male there may be multiple reason most of them benign so keep calm. I want little more Hx if you can add,
This all could be associated with Anxiety and depression.
drink plenty of fluids. at least 10 glasses a day.
Avoid constipation as it could be one of reason for blood in stool.
Avoid junk food
Exercise daily, 30 mins walk.
hope it will work.

I was diagnosed with GAD but I've pretty much overcomed it. I am drinking enough water.
I was guessing it was blood but the report shows no blood signs. But the nausea is persistent. I try to exercise but this nausea gets in the way.
Should i go for abdomen scan or something?

I don't think there is need of any scan at the moment. Get CBC and Liver function test done. Will Recommend US abdomen if LFTS derranged. Avoid sedentary life style, try to stay active.

no need to worry.as these symptoms are mostly anxiety related.these can be resolved by proper healthy diet n lifestyle.endoscooy can be done if these symptoms persist even after medication to rule out other cause.

Patient endoscopy to see any issues with stomach to rule out peptic ulcer or any other issues

It looks like more of an IBS (Irritable bowel syndrome). I need to get further history regarding your bowel habits like constipation or diarrhea. People with IBS are more sensitive and that is the reason it is accompanied by anxiety.So I want you to provide with more history and any test reports that you have carried out. It is a completely treatable disease but would linger on for years if you do not take care of it
Regards
I have thoroughly reviewed your reports. it's really difficult to cope up with all this. and it's understandable as well. The cause may be related to your anxiety to some extent as well. kindly modify your lifestyle.thats very important and has is one of the counter stone management. avoid spicy citrus food ,junk food,beverages like coffee tea specially empty stomach carbonated drinks, kindly avoid fried fatty foods.as the OCCUlt blood in stool is negative so you don't need to worry about the red spots in stool. those were probably because you may had passed hard stool.drink atleast 8 to 10 glasses of water to avoid passage of any hard stool . specially before every meal..
add brisk walk for 30 min in your daily routine.
also start tablet ganaton 150 mg for once aday 20 min before breakfast .plus capsule
rabixin 20 mg 30 min before breakfast .
also take syrup eplazyme . 1 tablespoon after every meal.
kindly also avoid eating meals too fastly .
and kindly let me know. stay home stay safe and take care.
You are suffering from anxiety ???? take tab motilium before meals the lockdown will IA soon be over
cap Risek 40mg once daily
syrup pelton v 1tsf three times a day
