Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in
Malabsorbtion syndrome can not be labelled without a workup
If you have any other bowel symptoms like, frequency of stool, urgency, mucus or blood in stool, reflux, distention after meals etc get back to me with the information
If it is other than MAS I will treat you accordingly or else will suggest a workup
Regards
