Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for getting back with the reports

It is possible that you are suffering from gastritis and it does occur at irregular intervals. Here are my suggestions

1. The fact that your pain is constantly in the right side, it is definitely coming from the stomach.
2. Eating regularly and on time is of most importance
3. Avoid caffeine ( coffee and tea)
4. Tab pantocid can be taken once daily before food during the acute event and also syrup mucaine gel to subside the pain
5. Do not sleep immediately after having dinner . Wait and stay seated atleast for 2 hours after dinner

Increase in total count can happen during gastritis without fever

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
