Answered on 11th Nov '24

Mycophenolate mofetil overdose might lead to diarrhea. It is one of the usual adverse effects. This can give rise to loose, watery stools and stomach upset. To lessen it, try to keep the fluid intake at a high level and eat small, light meals. If diarrhea is still there, notify it to a gastroenterologist. They may change the medicine or prescribe a drug to control the situation.

I done blood test and anti-hbs is positive what does it mean?

Male | 24

If your blood test shows that anti-HBs is positive, it means that you have antibodies against the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). This result indicates that you are either immune to hepatitis B or have been successfully vaccinated against the virus.

Had the flu week ago….all the symptoms…. Stool clay color, now having pain under right rib cage…2 days ago started having loose stools every time eating something…Stool getting back to normal color now… No abdominal pain and no back pain….Is this something be concerned with… Do not take med only Tylenol….

Female | 65

Your flu last wee­k messed with your digestion. The­ clay-colored poop is likely due to a live­r or gallbladder hiccup. That rib pain on your right side? It connects. The­ loose stool after eating shows your body's still he­aling. But since your poop's regaining color and pain's mild, just rest up. Drink lots of wate­r. Eat simply digestible foods. If that rib ache pe­rsists or intensifies, see­ a doctor. For now, your body's recovering from illness.

I'm hvg brown bleeding just 1 drop yesterday and 1 drop 2day I don't know y it's happened rather thn that yesterday i was hvg epigastric pain with stomach pain but 2day I'm hvg only epigastric pain

Female | 38

Are you experiencing brown bleeding and pain in your belly area? Brown bleeding might be due to the stomach or to some place in the digestive system. The pain in the epigastric region you are having could be due to your stomach. Try eating small, frequent meals and avoid spicy or greasy foods. If the bleeding persists or the pain gets worse, it is recommended that you see a healthcare provider for further advice.

Male | 30

Stomach erosions in the fundus and body of the stomach might be accompanied by symptoms such as stomach pain, bloating, and nausea. The reasons could be such things as excessive stomach acid, stress, or some medications. To help with this, try eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy foods, and reducing stress. Drinking plenty of water can also help. Remember, eating healthy and managing stress is key.

I’ve been experiencing pain on the left side of my stomach just below my ribs and my back also. It gets worse when I don’t eat

Female | 21

Pain on the left side of the stomach below the ribs, which worsens when not eating, could be caused by various factors. It could be gastrointestinal issues, like gastritis, or pancreatitis, among others. It could also be related to kidney problems, muscle strains, or other conditions.But you need to get a proper examination done to determine the cause .

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.

Does the gallblader polyps cause bad oral breathing?

Male | 40

Tiny outgrowths found in the gallbladder are known as gallbladder polyps. Symptoms of this condition are generally absent. However, some people may experience abdominal pain, vomiting or nausea if they have gallbladder polyps. Although the precise cause is unknown, there are instances when they have been associated with high cholesterol levels or inflammation.
