I read your query and can understand your concern.

There appears to be some damage to the stomach lining caused by the covid virus. Possibly using many antibiotics for a prolonged time has aggravated the problem.

Now the gut biome is deranged.

I suggest you concentrate on your diet. Try eating small frequent meals.

1. Eat a ripe banana which is a good source of probiotics.

2. Take boiled rice with curd and boiled potato.

3. Eat boiled vegetables and fruits.

4. Take one boiled egg with breakfast.

5. Avoid spicy, fried, junk foods, and carbonated beverages. They will further derange the gut biome and aggravate the problem.

I also suggest the following medications.

1. Take capsule Florastor (probiotic) 250 mg, one capsule daily after dinner for 30 days.
2. I also suggest you stop tablet Digegraft if possible. However, please consult a specialist doctor, discuss with them and start taking the medications with their consent.

I hope this helps.

Thank you and take care.

You need not do an endoscopy. I do not think there is permanent damage to the gastric lining. However, simple lifestyle changes can do wonders for better health.

Practice yoga & meditation, which will reduce your stress and cortisol levels and help you heal.

I suggest you take Saccharomyces boulardii 250 mg (probiotic) sachets, one sachet daily after dinner for 30 days. However, please consult a specialist doctor, discuss with them and start taking the medications with their consent.

I hope this helps.

Thank you and take care.
