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?

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:
- Geneticist: A specialist in genetics and heredity.
- Medical Geneticist: A medical doctor specializing in genetics and genomics.
Regarding DNA testing, you can ask for a:
- Parentage Test: Also known as a Paternity Test or DNA Paternity Test.
- DNA Profiling: A test that analyzes specific DNA markers to determine biological relationships.
Some common DNA tests used for parentage testing include:
- Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Testing: Analyzes specific DNA markers.
- 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.

View allI'm having my meals at 11am and 7pm, but I skip eating in the afternoon. Around 3pm, I start feeling like my food isn't completely digested, and I'm taking unienzyme tablets twice a day for it. Do you think it's okay for me to take the unienzyme a third time around 3pm to help with this?
break down your CBC (Complete Blood Count) results: *Results Analysis* 1. *PDW (Platelet Distribution Width)*: 17.1 (Normal range: 10-17) - Your PDW is slightly elevated, indicating a possible variation in platelet size. 2. *WBC (White Blood Cell) Count*: 11.4 (Normal range: 4-9) - Your WBC count is elevated, suggesting a possible infection, inflammation, or stress response. 3. *HCT (Hematocrit)*: 41.8 (Normal range: 34-38) - Your HCT is slightly elevated, indicating a possible increase in red blood cell concentration. *Suggestions* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Discuss your results with your doctor to determine the underlying cause of these abnormalities. 2. *Infection or inflammation check*: Your doctor may recommend further tests to check for underlying infections or inflammation. 3. *Stress management*: Engage in stress-reducing activities, as stress can contribute to elevated WBC counts. 4. *Hydration*: Ensure adequate hydration to help maintain healthy blood cell counts. 5. *Follow-up tests*: Schedule follow-up tests to monitor your blood cell counts and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.

I'm having a really tough time with constipation and I'm not sure what syrup might help. Also, Im a bit lost about what types of foods I should be eating to help with this. Can you guide me on what to do?
For constipation, you can take syrup Duphalac 15ml once daily. Additionally, you should increase your intake of fiber-rich foods such as fruits (apples, pears, berries), vegetables (broccoli, carrots, spinach), whole grains (oats, brown rice), and legumes (beans, lentils). It is also important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Regular physical activity can also help alleviate constipation.
