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 really worried about my mom. She's been taking cremaffin plus syrup for her constipation and piles for like three and a half months now. But lately, she's been making these odd stomach noises at night, like "doorrr doorrr," and now she's got diarrhea since yesterday. Is it safe for her to keep taking the syrup with diarrhea, or should she maybe lower the dose?
, it's recommended to stop or reduce the dose of Cremaffin Plus syrup temporarily if your mom is experiencing diarrhea, as the syrup is a laxative and may exacerbate diarrhea; instead, encourage her to stay hydrated with electrolyte-rich fluids, and consider an antidiarrheal medication like loperamide if advised by her doctor.

My mom has multiple gallstones with the biggest one at 15mm but she's scared of surgery and doesn't want her gallbladder removed She also has high sugar levels at 272 before food and a 43cm cyst The doctor gave her four medicines Ulyses 300 Qtil 500 chymoral forte and cap happi d Should we go ahead with surgery or try homeopathy or ayurveda instead
Given the large gallstone (15mm), symptoms, and high blood sugar, a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) is generally recommended for your mother. While homeopathy and Ayurveda can offer complementary therapies, they are not a replacement for conventional medical treatment.

I've been diagnosed with grade 1 fatty liver and have multiple gallstones ranging from 3 to 8mm. What treatment options do I have and is surgery necessary for this condition? I'm a bit worried about whether lifestyle changes alone would be enough or if I need medical intervention.
For grade 1 fatty liver and gallstones, a combination of lifestyle changes and, potentially, medical intervention might be necessary. Lifestyle changes, including weight loss, a healthy diet, and exercise, can help improve fatty liver. For gallstones, if they cause symptoms, surgery to remove the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is often recommended.
