Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 39-year-old female with no major illness, except gallstone, which was 0.86 inches and was found last year. I am on prediabetic side too. Since last few months, I am experiencing heavy bloating, gas and occasional burping after anything I eat. In the morning, I am having a flat tummy. My family history has acidity problem. I pass stool only three times a week for the last so many years. Also, my urination is not completed in one go. So, I have to go again in a few minutes to pass little more dribble urine. When my bloating is high, I noticed more urination too. What could be the cause?

Answered by Dr. Saumya Mittal

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  1. The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of two possible causes.
  2. As you said, gastritis is a huge possibility. Ideally, you need to test with an endoscopy. You should plan for this after consulting your specialist doctor.
  3. Meanwhile, I suggest tablet Pantocid 40 mg (Pantoprazole) twice a day before food. Also, test for Helicobacter pylori as soon as possible.
  4. A urine infection is a high probability. Get a test with urine routine and culture.
  5. Let us know the reports for further information. Meanwhile, take plenty of fluids and high fiber diet.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
