HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, chances of intestinal infection is likely as long as your symptoms of flatulence and upper abdomen pain is concern, and it could be protozoa infection, I would treat such case with Tab Omeprazole 40 mg Domperidone 20 mg once in day, with Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for five days, have more fiber containing diet and drink more water hope this information helps.
