Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I drank soda with chips last night, and now I am suffering from acid reflux and bloating, burping, and having stomach fullness. I vomited twice since last night. Despite using the comfort room four times today, I feel the food I ate last night is not fully digested, and my stomach still has gases as I could hear the sound from my stomach. I cannot breath well due to the gas in my stomach. I took Gaviscon the previous night. I feel a little better after throwing up of food I ate. I suffered the same three weeks ago when I skipped my lunch.

Kindly help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Sorry to hear about your problem.

It seems you have a sensitive tummy. Do take care to have food at regular intervals from now on. Do not skip your food. Avoid food from outside, spicy food, and root vegetables. Since you have lost toileting, you might have a mild infection also.

I suggest you take tablet Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor) 40 mg twice a day before food, capsule Vizylac (Lactobacillus sporogenes) along with Gaviscon (Sodium alginate, Sodium bicarbonate, and Calcium carbonate). Also, some probiotics.

Take care.

Regards.
