Question 1

I am a 29 year old single female. I have been experiencing stomach pain and diarrhea for several months. I consulted a gastroenterologist, who suggested that stress or IBS might be causing these symptoms. He prescribed Tab Novamcin RT, Cap Imodium, and Tab Revortil. After taking the medicines for a month, my pain and bowel issues improved. However, now I feel a heaviness above my navel. My doctor repeated some tests:
TSH: 1.71
CRP: 3.46 mg/L
Hemoglobin: 11.3 g/dL
ESR: 110 mm/hr
PCV/Hematocrit: 35.5 percent
RDW(CV): 15.2
The doctor prescribed the same medicines again and added Tab Meganeuron OD, but the heaviness around my navel persists.

Question 2

I have been experiencing sticky and loose stools for some time, and over the past week, my food is not digesting properly. My stomach feels full and bloated, and I also suffer from severe acidity. Recent tests show ESR of 20 and C reactive protein of 4.5, and I have attached two other test reports. Could you please advise what might be causing these symptoms and the next steps for diagnosis or treatment?

Question 3

I am attaching my report. Please explain what it means. Is there any medicine to relieve patchy hyperemia in the antrum, which suggests gastritis? I have had indigestion for five months, and my stools are thin, and I sometimes feel a burning sensation in my stomach. When I eat foods such as rajma, chole, paneer, milk, soybean and chicken, I often feel stomach discomfort for two days, and my stool becomes loose. Please explain in detail and help?

My occult blood report is not detected, but there is blood in my stool in physical examination. Is it a cause of concern?

If visible blood is seen despite a negative occult test, further evaluation like sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy is advised to find the source of piles, fissures, polyps.
