Question 1

I've been having some stomach pain and my doctor did an endoscopy. He mentioned something about an h pylari or h capitalliary infection. I'm on this Sompraz hp kit now, but since I started taking it, I've been having really loose stools and feel like I can't control it. Is this normal? What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Given the blood groups you mentioned:

- Mother (O+)
- Father (B+)
- Child (A+)

_It is theoretically possible_ for the child to have the A+ blood group, as the ABO blood group system is controlled by multiple genes. However, it's essential to explore this further.

To discuss this topic, consider consulting:

1. *Geneticist*: A specialist in genetics and heredity.
2. *Medical Geneticist*: A medical doctor specializing in genetics and genomics.

Regarding DNA testing, you can ask for a:

1. *Parentage Test*: Also known as a Paternity Test or DNA Paternity Test.
2. *DNA Profiling*: A test that analyzes specific DNA markers to determine biological relationships.

Some common DNA tests used for parentage testing include:

1. *Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Testing*: Analyzes specific DNA markers.
2. *Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Testing*: Amplifies specific DNA sequences.

Before proceeding, consider the emotional implications of DNA testing and discuss them with your family and a genetic counselor if needed.

Question 2

I've been having this burning sensation around my rectum for a few days now, and I'm a bit worried. My meals have been pretty spicy lately, so I'm thinking that might have something to do with it. I've been drinking plenty of water, so I'm not sure what else could be causing it. Do you have any advice on how I can make this go away?

Accepted Answer

drink more oral fluids

Question 3

I've been dealing with anxiety and these really troublesome gastric issues. Sometimes after lunch, if I'm out in the sun and either walk about a kilometer or climb some stairs, my heart rate just shoots up and my blood pressure feels high. But it usually calms down after about 15 minutes. I'm wondering if there's a link between the lunch and these heart rate spikes when I'm active like this. Could it really be connected to my gastric problems?

Accepted Answer

It is possible that your gastric issues and anxiety are contributing to your high heart rate and high blood pressure during physical activity. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking Pantoprazole (40mg) for your gastric issues and Escitalopram (10mg) for anxiety. Additionally, you can take Propranolol (20mg) before physical activity to help lower your heart rate and blood pressure. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medications.
