I'm a bit concerned because I've been taking rabeprazole and domperidone for a couple of months now, but I haven't really noticed a lot of relief. Lately, I've also started feeling this soreness at the back of my throat, like there's some food stuck or something, even though there's no pain or trouble swallowing. Is it possible that this could be related to H. Pylori, and is it known to be difficult to treat? I'm just trying to figure out what's going on.

Based on your WBC (White Blood Cell) count:
Normal WBC range: 4,000-11,000 cellsL Your WBC count: 12,100 cellsL (mildly elevated)
Elevated WBC count possible causes:
- Stress: Stress can cause a temporary increase in WBC count.
- Infection: Mild infections, like a cold or flu, can also cause elevated WBC.
- Inflammation: Yoga and pranayama are great, but intense physical activity can cause temporary inflammation, leading to elevated WBC.
Monitor and adjust:
- Repeat WBC test: After a few days to see if the count returns to normal.
- Manage stress: Continue yoga and pranayama, and consider additional stress-reducing techniques.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your body recover from stress and inflammation.

I'm really worried because I've been having some bad stomach pains and vomiting. I've already tried taking Ulgel, Loxof 500, and Cyclopam, but nothing seems to be working. Could this be a serious gastrointestinal issue, or is there something else I should try to get some relief? How concerned should I be about this?

I'm wondering if having a bowel movement 3 or 4 times a day is something I should be worried about. Could this be a sign of a stomach problem, or is this totally normal?
Passing stool 3 to 4 times a day can be normal for some people, especially if the stools are well-formed and you're not experiencing any discomfort or other symptoms like bloating, pain, or diarrhea. However, if you notice any changes in consistency, color, or feel unwell, its a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues.
