I have been dealing with stomach discomfort and indigestion for several months, which started after a course of antibiotics and painkillers in August. Since then, I have been experiencing nausea, indigestion, and smelly gas. A few months ago, a USG of the abdomen showed a gallbladder polyp of 2.8 mm, but I am not sure if my current issues are related to that. I am worried about stomach cancer, and this anxiety is affecting me mentally. I also lose weight easily despite going to the gym regularly for weight training (no cardio). My LFT, urine, stool, and CBC were normal. I was low on Vitamin D, so I am taking supplements weekly. I feel like every day a new problem arises, which increases my anxiety. I am mentally stressed due to my physical health issues. I want to know how to restore my gut health and feel normal again. I feel that these problems started after taking Covaxin, and it has left me very anxious. What should I do?

Stomach discomfort and indigestion after antibiotics and painkillers can be due to gastritis or gut flora imbalance. A 2.8mm gallbladder polyp is small and usually does not cause these symptoms. Anxiety and health worries can worsen gut issues. Focus on a gut friendly diet with probiotics, small frequent meals, and hydration. Avoid excessive gym strain if losing weight easily. If symptoms persist, a stool H. pylori antigen test may help rule out infection, and a gastro consult can help manage anxiety and gut health.

She was diagnosed with typhoid on September 1, and although her blood reports now confirm that the typhoid has been cured, she is still experiencing abdominal pain. Despite taking gastric medication, the pain continues. Please advise on what could be causing this ongoing discomfort and what further steps or tests should be considered.
