General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query and concern about your Mother of 55.
The causes of the pain in abdomen and occasional fever only at nights with raised AEC of 1700 and gases and distension in umbilical area indicate that she may be suffering from :
-Intestinal infection
-Worms in the small intestine can cause the similar problems.

I would advise you the following:
X-ray of the abdomen in standing position.
Ultrasonography has already been done.
Examination of the stool, blood and Urine.

5-day course of an antibiotic, Metronidazole and symptomatic treatment.
Tablets of Albendazole on empty stomach.
