I've been dealing with a really bad headache for a while now, along with dizziness, nausea, and fatigue. I can't stand noise or bright lights, and being in crowds just makes me feel sick and irritated. Lately, I've noticed I'm constipated too. There was a time when passing stools was painful and difficult, but that seemed to have eased up until yesterday when I saw blood in the toilet. I'm not on my period, and I'm really scared because I'm pretty sure I've seen blood in my stool twice now. What's going on? Could you help me understand this?

View allI've been dealing with mucus in my stool for the past six months, and it's getting worse. Sometimes it clears up, but other times it gets quite excessive. I'm also constantly experiencing stomach pain. I've already had a blood test, and everything came back normal. I'm really worried and would love some advice on what I should do next. What's going on with me?
The symptoms you are experiencing, such as mucus in stool and stomach pain, could be indicative of a gastrointestinal issue. One possible cause for these symptoms is inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). I recommend you to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can try taking a probiotic supplement like "Align" once daily to help support your gut health. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter antispasmodic medication like "Buscopan" as needed for stomach pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and follow a healthy, balanced diet rich in fiber.

I'm really puzzled right now. I recently finished a course of Flagyl for what my gi doctor suspected was giardia since I was having diarrhea, stomach pains, and nausea. So today, I had a plain hamburger with some ketchup and cheetos, and my diarrhea came back for about 2 hours. I'm trying to figure out why this happened. Could it be something about the food I ate, or is there another issue I might be dealing with?
The return of diarrhea after eating could be related to the foods you ate or your bodys ongoing recovery from the giardiasis infection. Monitor your symptoms and adjust your diet accordingly. If symptoms dont improve or if they worsen, consider following up with your doctor to rule out any underlying issues or complications.

I've been dealing with diarrhea on and off for over a week and a half now, and in between, my stools have turned this chalky white color. It's got me a bit worried, especially because I'm nursing and don't want to pass anything to my baby, even though she seems alright. I had the stomach flu about three weeks ago and then traveled, and this issue started when I got back. Is it possible that it's linked to the stomach flu, or could it be some kind of viral infection that just flared up again? What's going on and should I be really concerned about this?
Don't worry Take plenty of water, ors solution Take very simple and light food for 3 days Take Tab Dompan SR 1 on empty stomach Tab levomac 250 mg 1 tab Twice a day Tab metrogyl ER 1 tab Twice a day Cap Bifilac hp 1 perday All for 3 day
