Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of multiple problems.
You have got constipation due to eating less due to oral thrush, pain in the throat and fluid in the middle ear, behind the ear drum. You also suffer from anxiety disorder and depression.
Collectively these things may be related and need charting out the problems and the solution one by one.
I would advise you the following in such a condition.
First of all get your blood, urine and stool checked for thyroid, diabetes and so on.
If diabetes is present, get control over it and other medical conditions.
You need oral anti-fungal treatment.
Get treated your anxiety and depression.
ENT consultation and treatment as per the clinical evaluation.
For constipation get an enema first.
Continue with plenty of oral fluids and try to go for soft diet and take Isabgoal husk with warm water to get smooth bowel passage.
