Hi,
All these symptoms of IBS only.
Continue taking probiotics ( Vibact).
Discuss with your gastroenterologist who would prescribe you medications for IBS-D like ramosetron, antispasmpdics and amitryptyline type of medications for complete relief.
You should also get tested for celiac disease which can be done by blood tests and endoscopy.
I hope that answers your question.
If you have no more questions, kindly rate this service.

Hi Doctror,
I have met one gastro enterologist at XXXXXXX Hospital. He has asked me to take 10 day medication(tab-Gastractive).
He also prescribed for tow blood tests
1)IGA Antitransfusion Glutaminense
2)IGA Antiendomyseal Antibody.
They said these tests will be done only in Mumbai, samples to be sent to there.
The worrying thing is that these are very expensive. Outside labs are charging 7.5k to 8k.
But my doc said, his wife is running a clinic which will costing to Rs.3.5k to 4k.
Can you suggest if we have any tie-ups with any clinics..
