I'm really worried because I've been dealing with stomach problems for the last two months, like cramps, abdominal pain, weird motions, mild fever, red eyes, and headaches. I first saw one gastro doctor who thought it was an infection and gave me some medications like Zifi, Satrogyl, and Nizonide. He wanted me to do a bunch of tests like colonoscopy, endoscopy, biopsy, CT scans, and blood tests. I went to another senior gastro in Noida, and he said it's IBS and no need for all those tests. But then after his 10-day course, the issues came back, and he also blamed another infection. Now, it's been about 20 days since my stomach has been better, and I'm taking Menoctyl, Enzar Forte, and Vizylac. What's really bothering me is that I've lost 8-9 kg of weight despite eating enough lately, and my weight isn't going up. Is this normal? Should I stick with the same gastro since I'm finally feeling some relief? The weight loss is freaking me out a bit.

View allI'm really worried about my friend who's been on TB meds for about 20 days now. Suddenly, he started having nonstop vomiting, can't eat or drink, and is super dehydrated. The doctor suggested stopping his TB pills for a week. They're giving him Taxim injections for the next 5 to 6 days along with some other injections. Do you think this break in TB treatment is something we should be concerned about?
Yes, it is the side-effects of anti-tubercular therapy. Pls continue inj taxim for 5 days.Post antibiotic course ATT can be started .

I've been struggling with stomach bloating for about three years now. It's always accompanied by a lot of flatulence, and over the past year, I've noticed my stools becoming pencil-thin. I go to the bathroom 2-3 times a day, and there's always this slight cramping on the upper left side of my stomach. Could you tell me what might be going on and what steps I should take next?
it can be due to these factors Diet: A low-fiber diet can cause narrow stools. Temporary infection: A temporary infection can cause narrow stools. Constipation: Constipation can cause narrow stools. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS): IBS can cause changes in stool size. Medications: Certain medications can cause narrow stools. Food poisoning: Food poisoning can cause diarrhea and thin stools. Parasitic gut infections: Parasitic gut infections can cause narrow stools

I've had GERD for about a year now and every time I take medicine or antacids, I end up with loose motions. Is this normal? Should I consider surgery as an option or are there other ways to manage this?
