Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 23 years old. I am having the following symptoms:

1) Sweet taste from the past two days.

2) Always feel constipated.

3) Feel tired most of the time.

4) Hard to sleep.

I have a history of gastroenterological problems. Sometimes my uric acid becomes high. I also get jaundice sometimes. I have tried too many things to have good health but all in vain. Kindly help me.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Actually, in such cases, an endoscopic examination is required. If you are frequently facing gastrointestinal symptoms, endoscopy will help rule out any disease associated with GI (gastrointestinal) tract. I would suggest you take a high-fiber diet for constipation and abdomen discomfort because it will help make stool softer. Sometimes sleep disturbance, decreased smell sensation, and tiredness can be due to thyroid disorders. So, I would suggest you do a thyroid function test.

Since when do you have these symptoms? Did you lose weight in the past months?

I suggest you take the following medications for five days:

1) Syrup Cremaffin (Magnesium hydroxide) once a day 15 ml before sleeping.

2) Tablet Vitamin C 500 mg once a day before meal.

3) Tablet Zincovit (Multivitamin) 500 mg once a day after meal.

Please get back to me with your reports of liver function tests and other blood tests. I can guide you accordingly.

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