What Causes Nausea With Headaches?
Hello. I have had some concerns regarding my health lately. To have some of the following explained would be greatly appreciated:
Recently, I have discovered specific issues with my bowl movements. There have been occasions in which I have found alarming amounts of blood in the toilet. As well, I have had black, tarry stool. Furthermore, my stool has become a bit thin and string-like. I am not too sure of its relevance, but I have developed many hives on my torso in the past few weeks. Finally, some nausea and discomfort in the stomach, coupled with headaches, have also been noticed.
What could these symptoms suggest?
Thank you very much for whatever help you may give. I know this may be a lot of information to process in one sitting, but I feel it is time to have these things addressed. Thank you again.

Hello,
In my opinion you get investigated for stool blood/occult blood, cyst and ova, as the infestation by nematode, helminths can cause such symptoms. Based on the reports further line of treatment is decided. Headache can be due to general weakness and also possible that these organism may have reached to the brain, so get a CT or MRI of the brain done to rule out such possibility.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ramchandra Lamba
