I am a 59 years old, weigh 120 and 5'6". I am having an issue when I eat something one night everything is fine but I eat leftovers the next night and I get bloating, gas, diarrhea and stomach ache. This does not happen all the time but often enough I have try keeping a food diary but that not working very well because I eat something and nothing happens but next time I eat the same thing I get bloating, gas, diarrhea and stomach ache. I tried the FODMAP diet but some of the food they recommend have caused the issues. So I asked Dr. if they could arrange a test for food intolerant test. I was there is not one.

According to your symptoms of bloating, gas, diarrhea and stomach pain after consuming the leftovers you most likely have cases of food poison or intolerance. Generally, it is better to seek advice from a specialist and undergo testing in order to determine the root of your symptoms. In the meantime, follow simple diet

I accidently chewed Cyra-d, is it issue, I drank lot of water of it

Male | 22

Cyra-D can give rise to some issues when chewing it. This might cause symptoms such as stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Drinking plenty of water will help rinse it off. If you still feel unwell or experience any serious symptoms, such as shortness of breath or severe pain, it is important to seek help immediately by going to the hospital.

After on time taking meal still feel weakness and feel taste bitter and after having extra food still feel weakness no engry to do anything ...

Female | 20

You might have a condition called indigestion. Symptoms include weakness, a bitter taste in your mouth, and lack of energy even after eating a meal. Overeating is another factor that can make it worse. To get better, you should eat smaller meals, and non-spicy food, and not lie down right after eating. Avoiding late-night snacks can also be a nice decision since it will help you relieve symptoms.

I was feeling unwell, was given some anti malarial, not much change, later typhoid was suspected, but I didn't do a test. I've been on ciproflaxacin, I feel like going for a blood check up but it might not work since I've been on medicine, am asking for advice

Male | 20

It seems that dealing with a complex situation. Being sick and taking drugs can lead to inaccurate results of a blood test. Knowing exactly what is wrong is necessary for the right treatment. Symptoms of fever, stomach ache and general body weakness are common in both malaria and typhoid. Failing to go through the test may complicate matters further. My advice is to wait for some days after completion of the ciprofloxacin course before going for a blood test. This will enable you to get clearer results about your health status.

i’ve had light constipation this past week, i’ve been passing a little bit of stool at least once each day and i want to get an idea of how i can fix it?

Female | 17

You have mild constipation. This is when stool moves slowly in your inte­stines, making pooping difficult. Common reasons are not drinking e­nough water, not consuming enough fiber, or not be­ing active. To fix this, drink more water. Eat fruits and ve­getables. Move your body by walking or e­xercising regularly. Constipation makes bowe­l movements difficult. Mild cases can be­ alleviated with simple life­style changes.
