What Could Stomach Discomfort, Weakness During Night Hours Indicate?

Hi I was wondering I've been feeling really sick lately, ill be fine all day and then at night time or after I eat I feel like puking and my body hurts, and my head, and I feel weak, this has been going on for almost 5 days now. I go to the gym and workout a lot, but it never happened before, I drink lots and lots of water and I eat healthy, i never miss any meal of the day. What can possibly be wrong with me?

Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post is attributed to accumulation of gas secondary to increased acid production in the stomach.

Symptomatic relief can be obtained with intake of Pantoprazole preparation (to be taken twice a day before meals) & antacid gel (to be taken after meals).
They prevent formation of excess acid in the stomach & provide symptomatic relief.

And it is also needed that you take certain precautions regarding your diet & lifestyle, such as:
1. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods
2. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration
3. Avoid fast foods & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc.
4. Avoid smoking & alcohol.
5. Keep away stress, think positive.

If symptoms still persist, kindly consult a Gastroenterologist & get a proper clinical evaluation done.
Investigations like complete blood count, serum electrolytes, blood sugar levels, Ultrasound scan of abdomen will be helpful.

Wishing a good health.
Take care.
