Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My boyfriend has a reoccurring stomach issue. About once a month(sometimes more sometimes less) he throws up (almost non-stop) has diarrhea, excess saliva and bad sweating. We have been to the hospital and was told its acid reflex. They told him to take a probiotic and acid reducer everyday. Its not working. Please what do you think the problem is and/or how can we fix it?
Hi, From history it seems that he might be having chronic GI infection producing this problem since long. Go for stool test for ova, cyst and organisms. After report you might require one course of medicine like ofloxaciln, metronidazole course for 3-5 days. Take light food for few days. Ok and take care.
