Suggest Treatment For Stomach Discomfort And Constipation
I need to go to the Doc again, which test should i ask for
22 year old hispanic female, weight is aproximately 150 pounds, height is 5'1, abstinent (religious reasons). i am an overall healthy person i rarely get sick, last time i had a cold/flu was about 3-4 years ago, so i rarely get sick. lately i have been feeling strange, it started about 4-5 weeks ago.
Symptoms: 1) had a headache that would not go away on left temple, and left eye twitching, muscle aches and joint cracking, fatigue. I have been taking vitamin D 5000 IU daily along with a combination of Calcium, Magnesium, and Zinc this helped soooo much. I feel way better. The muscle aches seemed to move around my body.
2) I had upper back pain that would move to my left arm neck and jaw, and rib cage (EKG and everything was normal) this went away
3) constipation and abdominal pain, the pain is bearable, the pain started in my upper abdomen under my ribs. Now it has moved to my lower abdomen and back (kidney area) it is not like cramps, it is more of a random discomfort that comes and goes. my urine is neon yellow, it used to be a clearer color. when i push in my stomach by my belly button I feel a bump that causes the back discomfort that i feel at random moments. the pain is not too bad it is just annoying.
I went to the doc about 3 weeks ago, they did and EKG, CBC, and checked the thyroid, everything came back normal. please help. The only symptoms I feel now is the stomach discomfort it is around my belly button and moves to the back (kidney area) and constipation, and a bit of joint pain, everything else seems normal. I have no fever, chills, or anything else. I am a receptionist i sit in front of a computer for hours. please help.

Thank you for posting query at HCM>
further evaluation needed:
1. Liver function test
2. Ultrasound (abdomen)
3. H.pylori test (urea breath test OR stool antigen Test)
after test result received, visit gastroenterologist.
Meanwhile:
- warm water intake
-"fresh oranges" and pear
- avoid COLD milk and yogurt and AVOID junk food(NO burger , pizza) altogether
- include fiber rich food in your diet
- OTC lactulose drug maybe used to combat constipation
- simethicone tablets for bloating
hope the bowel movement would be normal.
any further questions are welcomed.
in case you do not pass stool, then its better to meet your treating physician and/or gastroenterologist.
hope to answer your concern.
