Suggest Remedies For Abdominal Bloating, Nausea And Loss Of Appetite In An Elderly Person
Question: Hello, I'm a 59 yr old female, I've been seeing a Chinese Dr for two yrs, after struggling with pain from inflammatory auto immune for approx 15 yrs. They are treating me for liver symptoms now. In 2004 in I was found to have vascular tumors and I've had herpes simplex my whole life, which they say effects the liver as well. I'm not sure if I should continue this path of treatment without a more specific diagnose, or if I had one is here anything western medicine can do except transplant which I'm not interested in doing. I don't want any drugs with bad side effects. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks XXXXXXX my symptoms are abdominal bloating, pain in liver area spreading into rightshoulder and back, loss of appetite most time, very vivid dreams for 6 mths, changes in stools, some nausea, watering mouth, sometimes I look yellowish, and bottom half of eye whites look discolored.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Read your query facts and reviewed it in context to your health concerns.
Based on the facts of your query you seem to be misdiagnosed case and needs further detailed investigations for assessments of your complaints.
In My opinion,such a complaint complex, suggests that mostly you suffer from -
GERD(Gasto Esophageal Reflux Disease) -as you suffer from nausea/ vomiting,watering mouth
IBS(Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome)-as you have Changes in stool consistency and bloating pain with lack of appetite,
Hepatitis- as you have right shoulder pain being caused and referred from inflamed liver.Herpes Simplex? causing it is very rare and needs to be confirmed by specific tests and liver biopsy if need be.
Plan Suggested for your case-
Get Consults from Physician,who would -
do assessment of your case-by Stool
/Liver Function Tests with Serum Direct Bilirubin to find if it is causing muddy eyes /
and other relevant blood tests.
Also he would do CT Abdomen to assess extent of hepatitis and IBS you have.
Alerts-
Don't worry for liver transplant obsession and fear psychosis induced from chinese XXXXXXX doctors,till you are assessed by allopath physician specialist doctor.
Remedies-
General Symptomatic Treatment would be advised from Physician as needed by your clinical examination.
This would include-Antibiotics / Metrogyl / PPI /Anti-Spamodics /
and BRAT(Banana Rice Apple smashed, Toast) diet-for IBS
Avoid Chilles/Fried and oily diet
High Carbo/ low fat diet with Bplex Vit Supplements
The above regime would help you till being assessed for your complaints.
