Suggest Cure For Sickness In The Stomach Followed By Urinary Infection

Hello, my 19 year old daughter is always feeling flat, has very watery stools every morning, tired and lost quite a bit of weight. We had blood tests done a couple of months ago and came back as she had a urine infection. She was given a tablet to stop that but still has the other symptoms. Do you think a pro biotic might help? Thanks Louisa.\

Hi,

Since Urinary tract infection has been settled the issue is about loose stools in the morning, tiredness and weight loss.

Hence I would advise her the following in such a situation:
- Send the stool samples for tests for three consecutive days, if it shows any infection get treated accordingly.
- Surely Pre and probiotics help in some cases hence should be given in all causes.
- Also send blood tests for thyroid tests as well as routine tests. Review test for urine as she had UTI in past.
- Ultrasonography and other tests as would be advise to get a proper diagnosis so that an appropriate management can be done.
- Proper supplements may be needed as she has lost weight.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
