Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Sir, recently I have recently been diagnosed with IBS. My endoscopy was done and Gastrities was found. Biopsy was normal. During the last one year I have been admitted to hospital four times due to nausea and continuous vomiting. I could not take water even. Everything comes out immediately. Initially it was called GERD but now it is said that it is IBS with GERD. I have been advised Librax twice daily with Pantocid twice. Now, what treatment at home I can take other than medicine. Just like pepermit oil, yakult etc. Is there difference between pepermint oil and pudin hara. Pls. Guide as much as you can. Is it really IBS bcause I have problems with vomiting mainly. thanks and regard Sunil Jairath YYYY@YYYY
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have IBS with GERD . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are due to abnormal functioning of sphincter of esophagus . I would suggest you to eat light and non spicy specially at night , eat at least one hour before going to bed , take light walk after eating and keep your head elevated while sleeping. Consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ambulatory acidity test along with endoscopy and x-ray of upper digestive track . Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , proton pump inhibitor . Keep your head elevated , do not eat food ,which can cause swelling of intestinal mucosa like spicy food and drink plenty of water .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
