Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am taking Calcium with Magnesium and Vitiamin D3 since I am taking reflux Meds (precipation) from my doctor which is Pantoprazole Sod. DR Tabs- 40Mg twice aday. Since I have taken this for two weeks, my stomach is hurting all the time. Could it be the Calcium ,Magnesium, VitiaminD3 causing this problem. I also have IBS and diverticiulitis.
Hi. Thanks for your query. You may be suffering from severe gastritis , which in turn would have been a part of IBS you are suffering and added upon by taking Calcium, Magnesium and Vitamin D 3.
Continue Pantoprazole and add an antacid 3 tsf 3 hourly, Domperidone ; soft and bland diet, cold liquids.
You need also to undergo Upper GI Endoscopy. This will give a better diagnosis and treatment. It is better to have a review Colonoscopy and CT scan for your IBS and Diverticulitis.
