Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history and reports provided carefully and understood your concerns.

1. I always say to my patients coming into my clinic with the same problems as you that should not worry about something that is causing pain. That is not a serious problem. We usually worry about those things that seem to be tiny and insignificant but, indeed, they are hiding very serious issues.

In your case, I still think that you should not be worried about what you are experiencing. That is not serious. It is fastidious but not serious.

2. Now, coming to Lycopene; this is a potent anti-oxidant that will help:
- reduce weight
- clear your liver
- strengthen your immunity

So, lycopene is usually helping those who really needs. And here we are talking about supplemental dosage. Because, you can take lycopene by eating tomatoes for example, which are rich in lycopene.

3. I have gone through your lab reports and found nothing serious there:
- AG ratio is slightly low but not problematic because : albumin/globulin and total protein levels are within normal range
- high monocyte levels are indicative for possible viral infection
- your upper endoscopy was normal and found nothing. Although it was normal, your symptoms are indicative for dyspepsia, therefore, if I was your caring doctor would advise to run further diagnostic tests like abdominal ultrasound to rule out gallbladder issues.

4. If I was your caring doctor, would recommend as following:
- follow a healthy diet regimen
- try to schedule moderate exercises on daily basis
- continue the medications as advised by your doctor
- keep following up with your doctor as scheduled

All the best!

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,
Following answer to your queries:

Answer question 1. Ge junction is at 40 cm mean the distance of gastro esophageal junction from mouth. In your case should be rule out hiatal hernia, otherwise is a normal finding.

Answer question 2. The red mark seen aren't ulcer but small mucosal damage, which are done by scope during endoscopy procedure.

Answer question 3. Although ag ratio is slightly decreased you shouldn't take any medication, because this data hasn't any clinical significance.

Answer question 4-11.Your symptoms may be related to dyspeptic syndrome (as I mentioned above) gallbladder issues or hiatal hernia. Abdominal ultrasound will exclude biliary (gallbladder) problems. An upper gastro intestinal barium swallowing radiography will exclude hiatal hernia.

Answer question 12. Sinus problems may be independent from gastric issues as long as no signs of GERD were found on upper endoscopy. I suggest to consult an ENT.

Answer question 13. More over head ache, body ache may be related to neurological problems. You should contact a neurologist.

Answer question 14. Two years ago you have had fatty liver due to alcohol use and poor diet and obesity. After reducing alcohol and a healthy lifestyle and diet everything comeback to normal. Bare in mind that fatty liver isn't a disease but only an ultrasound finding.

Answer question 15. You have a slightly elevated monocytes due to viral infection. There's no need for any medication. Dyspepsia is when you have signs of upper gastrointestinal symptoms (bloating, gas, vomiting, indigestion etc.) with normal endoscopy findings. My advice is to run manometri test to exclude GERD.

Answer question 16. I suggest to continue medications for 6 weeks to see any improvement. I would add simeticone to your treatment and would advice to loose weigh. This will help to relief your symptoms.

Hope this will be of help!

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

1. Although hb seems to be at the limit lower range, it is considered normal.

2. ESR is high and indicating some inflammation in your body. Having hb slightly reduced is also indicative for the inflammation.

3. Your blood sugar levels are borderline, I should not be worried because you:
- are having inflammation
- are under stressed

You should repeat testing after 3 months and to also run HbA1C.

You are having slight reduced levels of vit, most probably due to problems with digestion.
The medication your doctor has prescribed will replace the vitamins that are missing.

While the gel will reduce burning sensation.

All the best!
