Can you help me understand the results of my fecalysis? The color's dark brown and the consistency is mushy. There's a note about microscopic pus cells at 02 HPF and red cells at 01 HPF, but it says no parasites or ova. It mentions many bacteria too. I'm wondering if everything looks normal to you.

The reports of your fecal analysis are predominantly normal, with no presence of parasites or ova. There is however an increased bacterial count in your report, which may be indicative of an infection, depending on your symptoms.

View allMy doctor said I have an incompetent lower esophageal sphincter and I'm really worried because my brother told me GERD is incurable. Is there any way to heal this without surgery? I'm feeling pretty down about it.
as symptoms are suggestive of gastritis and GERD (GASTRO ESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE ).Need to follow some lifestyle changes. Take food timely. Avoid cabbage, capsicum, citrus fruits ( for a while). Don't drink water with food, take after 40 min. as much as needed thereafter. Don't lie down immediately after food. Finish night meal by 8.30 pm maximum. Go to bed after minimum 1 hour after dinner. Always keep stomach 1/4 th empty.Divide meal into 5-6 times a day. Avoid the particular food, which is being observed to cause bloating, fullness, upper abdominal pain/ discomfort, reflux symptoms etc. A good acid blocker is needed to check excess acid production.

I'm suffering from severe gastroparesis and the pain is unbearable all the time. Are there any surgical options available in India for this condition and where can I get treated?
Yes, surgical options are available in India for severe gastroparesis, but they are generally considered as a last resort after other treatments have failed. The most common surgical procedures include jejunostomy tube placement, gastric venting tube placement, and in severe cases, even a gastrectomy.
