Pain In Stomach, Sore Ears, Dry Mouth, Sore Throat. Any Ideas?

Hi,
I've had a pain on my left side (stomach) for approximately a month. Today I also have pain on the lower right side of my stomach. Left side not as prominent today. I have regular bowel movements (sometimes constipated, sometimes, diarreah). I've had sore ears, dry mouth and a sore throat as well. I have been tired as of late and have been sneezing quite a bit. The stomach pain seems to be throbbing pains but constant. My doctor is sending me for a Cat Scan...

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Here I want to ask one question that , you mentioned that there is pain from one month on left side stomach ( abdomen in my opinion as you are asking for ) and now the pain is on right side of stomach .
I think pain is on both side of abdomen left and right side. As you stated that there is sometimes diarrhea , sometimes constipation , so pain must be on both side of abdomen on lower part , so may be ,
1 Amoebic colitis as sometimes diarrhea and constipation present in this condition. Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by a physician . Get in stool for E . histolica .
2 If pain is on the left side in stomach as you mentioned then may be due to Peptic ulcer disease . Diagnosis can be confirmed by upper G I endoscopy .
Till avoid greasy, spicy foods, junk foods, alcohol, caffeinated drinks . Don't eat or drink 2 hours before lie down.
Try raising the head of bed 4 inches above with blocks.
3 Cancer of large intestine as pain is regular from one month. Diagnosis can be confirmed by colonoscopy . Least possible chance.
So in my opinion physician consultation will help.
Good luck. Dr. HET

Hi, it appears that there are 2 issues with you. the abdominal pain first on left side and then on right side. Some times costipation and then diarrhea. advise you to consult a gastro enterologist for diagnosis.
You also got sore throat, ears, dry mouth, is a minor thing may be due to the common cold, the gastroenterologist can treat it . if not consult an E.N.T.surgeon for diagnosis .
For both the things i to my patients prescribe injection amicacin 500 mg once daily. ofloxacin 200 B.D, omeprazole, domperidone, and dicyclomine hydrochloride, and a syrup containing anti histamine, decongestant, and paracetamol. Thank you.
