Hello,
7 days of diarrhea and mucus in stool needs the following:
- Send the sample of stool for tests and if amebiasis and/or bacterial infection is found it is better to get a proper course of an antibiotic,
metronidazole, probiotics and you will be fine.
- If there is no complete relief then you may need a
colonoscopy and biopsy for confirming or ruling out any dreaded disease.
- Other supportive tests of blood,
ultrasonography or CT scan of abdomen may be needed.
Gall bladder surgery and GERD is probably not associated with the present problem hence should be considered as separate entity and treated with a PPI like Omeprazole,
Domperidone to regulate motility and control GERD, antacids whenever needed; soft bland diet less in fat. Watch for further development and get treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T Chandrakant
