Brief Answer:
Seems like Stomach infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Greetings from Dr Divakara P
Thanks for posting your query.


It seems like you are either having infection of your stomach or an ulcer in your stomach. Both requires proper medication else it may turn into a complicated problem.

Do you have any vomiting or loose motions?
What happens when you eat any other food ?
Did you had any similar problem in past ?

I recommend you to get a prescription for Pantoprezole and use it. You can also take antacid syrup for 2-3 days. If there is no significant improvement then you need to get an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy scan done to know. what's wrong with your stomach.

Your urine output is low because of low fluid intake which in turn is causing dehydration. Hence increase the intake of water and urine shall increase.

Hope this information was useful to you.

Kindly revert back with details asked.

Regards.

I don't think much of your advice. I have seen doctors, been on antibiotics that didn't work lots of time in hospital. But found something on Friday from a health food store that is really helping me. I don't think your advice could have been worse.

Brief Answer:
Good for you.

Detailed Answer:
HI

Well I have not mentioned anything about antibiotics. Good that you have got something that is helping you but it is always good to get investigated to know what is wrong with the body.

Hence I still recommend upper gastro intestinal endoscopy if in case your symptoms persists and if it recurs.

If you won't mind would you like to tell what exactly you got so that I can go through its uses and effects.

Regards.
