Suggest Treatment For Acute Indigestion, Severe Headache And Burning Sensation In Stomach

default
Posted on Mon, 30 Nov 2015
Question: Dear Doctor,

I am male aged 43 yrs vegetarian and residing in XXXXXXX Since 1996 I am suffering from accute Indigestion problem followed by severe headache. Almost all every now and then I am facing these problems. I got the tests done but everything is fine. Secondly, stool is free. When I wake up first i go to motion. I get free motion and I don't have the problem of gas, pain in the stomach, burning in the stomach. Nothing like that.

Main thing is indigestion. I feel heaviness in the stomach and immediately headache occurs. Then I take Rantac 150 mg twice followed by combiflam. If the problem does not subsides i will take 3 more rantac and one more combiflam. But gradually the problem will fade away. During this period I am not in a position to take food.

Third thing I tried Pan 40 etc. and painkillers like mefthalspas, crocin pain killers etc. but in vain.

KINDLY SUGGEST EXACT MEDICINE WHICH CURES INDIGESTION AND HEADACHE.

Dear Sir,

1) First and foremos thing I don't take outside food. I go to hotel once in a month or so and that too being a South XXXXXXX I just have Idli, Dosa etc.
2) I am a Central Government employee [purely sedantary lifestyle in the office] and the working hours from 9.00 AM in the morning but evening depends on the boss. Normally we leave office at about 7.30 pm.

3) The fact is eventhough it is a sedantary job, I do the exercises like this [Monday: Physical Exercises, Tuesday: Yoga, Pranayam and Meditation, Wednesday: Jogging and like wise next three days and sunday take off. I take good food. Morning and afternoon I will take chapatis with pure vegetables evening: fruits and night: rice. I take plenty of wate about 5-6 ltrs in a day.

4) I drink only once in a year or so. Because all these are fermented. If I take beer or hot, immediately I will prone to vomit. That's why I avoid. Also I don't have any habit of tobacco etc. As far as spicy foods are concerned only sometimes we will take. As far as tea and coffee are concerned. I will take one cup of tea in the morning and green tea in day time.

5) I did the stool tests etc. but it is showing food is not digested properly.

6) I dont have any constipation problem also during the life time i did not get blood in my stool. The first thing I wake up in the morning, I go for toilet. I get free motion.

7) I don't have any piles/ fissures etc.

Kindly go through this and suggest suitable medicines please.

Hi,Dear,Thanks for the detailed updates.
Based on the study of your query and updates,though seemingly your Lifestyle is Very ideal/ and good,but still you have indigestion with headache and that too with free stools everyday.
Some important link is missing still,which I will have to find out with more detailed information from You....

The heaviness you have after the food intake with severe headache going on since 1996,and still you have not undergone any OGD test,about which you did not report in last updates,even though asked.

Will You please update Me your tests which You said were done -of all types / and they were all normal.
How about your sleep hours? do you get disturbed sleep? or do you get a sound Sleep?
What is your height and weight currently?Are you obese?
What are the other illnesses you have for which You take any medicines?
Update the list of Medicines from Your doctors?
Which food triggers this severe headache / heaviness immediately after food intake?Did you check for the Trigger Foods for any food intolerance?
Did you like Milk and Milk products?

Prima facie Impression -
In My opinion-You seem to suffer from undiagnosed GI-(Gastro-Intestinal)ailment,which is yet to be pinpointed from the doctors you visited.
Any doctor's Visit notes/ or any discharge cards of Hospitials you investigated lately for these and other troubles?
Update on all the tests done by you in the past and lately for this illness or for any other illness.
Be XXXXXXX in expressing your mind on What is the probable food trigger causing this in your case.

I would await for all this and more information from You till the next session,where in I would review and research the cause of the heaviness and severe headache after taking food.

Diet Suggested-
Rice based liquid and Low Volume diets
Less of Fats/Oils for next 4 weeks
No spices and chilles for next 4 weeks
Bland Diets with No green peanuts.
Banana Milks Shakes 2 times a day.
Butter Milk 2 times a day.
Avoid Chapatis-for 2 weeks and watch the stool changes in all its variables.
Take less of Vegetables for 2 weeks.
Get the Stool-Occult and microscopic / Urine routine and Microscopic test
Tab Enzar(digestant) after Meals.
Bplex forte +Folic Acid+Vit B12 +Vit E+Vit D3 with script from Your doctors.

Hope this would help you to recoup fast from your Severe Headaches and post meal heaviness.

Keep Me updated on all the reports You have and progress you have over next 3 weeks.
Await more information for the next session.
Welcome for any further query in this regard,Which I would love to reply to best of My knowledge,for you.

Dear Doctor,

Frankly speaking Doctor, I did not get it done any type of tests. Because everytime when I go to Doctor, he/ she used to said that you take this medicine then it will be ok. KINDLY TELL ME WHICH SPECIALIST I HAVE TO CONSULT AND GET THE TESTS DONE.

I want to tell you frankly since childhood I have been suffering from Chronic Anxiety and Depression. I have been taking treatment and medication since 1996 that means almost 21 years. Might be this is one of the problem triggering indigestion and headache.

As far as sleep is concerned it is disturbed. \

My height is 5'10"and weight is 80 kigs. After using psychiatric medicines I gained weight 20 kgs.

For Anxiety and Depression I have been taking three times in a day almost 10 tablets.

As far as food is concerned triggering one is dal (all types) and milk products.

I like milk products but even a glass of milk also not digest for me.

I am sorry for keeping all these secrets.

ONE MORE THING IS MY FOOD TAKING IS IRREGULAR. ONE DAY I TAKE HEAVY MEALS AFTER THAT BECAUSE OF HEAVINESS I COMPLETELY STOP TAKING FOOD. MEANS IRREGULAR DIET HABITS.
