What Could Be Causing My Persistent Stomach Cramps and Soft Stools?

Patient's Query

10 days ago I started having diarrhea and cramps, I couldn’t explain why because I was careful with what I ate. During the first days it was bad I had to wake up early in the morning to go to the toilet. On 7th day I started doing the following: - drinking a lot of mint tea - taking 5 drops of liquid propolis every day - took a teaspoon of cocoa raw once - ate toast and bananas and soup and rice only - no sugar for 2 days - taking one Imodium once a day Now it is the 10th day since I have this problem. Compared to the beginning, I no longer have diarrhea that wakes me up. I only feel the need to go once a day but the stool is still a little too soft. The main issue is the stomach ache and cramps which seem to be stronger than in the beginning. Nauseous in the morning after eating breakfast but didn’t throw up. Otherwise I feel fine - full energy, no weakness, no dehydration. If it’s worth mentioning I have an irregular sleep schedule where I sleep at 4-5 AM and wake up around noon every day (still 7+ hours of sleep) I noticed that before this issue started, I did the following things the day before: - started eating sunflower seeds - started taking vitamin D - ate persimmons for the first time this year - ate Cadbury chocolate for the first time I stopped all of them on my 7th day

High levels of thyroid can be due to symptoms such as gastritis, pain in the left leg, and so on. It is necessary to consult an endocrinologist whether it is for thyroid management or gastritis. The pulmonologist would be crucial in the management of the breathing problems and the primary physician would refer the patient to the relevant specialist.

Male | 17

The symptoms you've listed can be treated depending on their cause. For a headache, consider hydration, rest, and pain relievers. For a blocked nose, use saline spray and humidifiers. Abdominal pain may be relieved by rest, small meals, and consulting a doctor if severe. To combat sleepiness, ensure good sleep habits and moderate caffeine intake.

Hello, I smoked meth today around 4:00pm. Since then, my heart rate has been between 125-150bpm. At 8:00pm, I felt a little bit of anxiety creeping up so I took my prescribed hydroxyzine. At midnight I took my prescribed trazodone for sleep. I’m wondering what I can do to get my heart rate back to baseline and what I can do regarding my sleep. I’m a bit worried from taking the hydroxyzine and trazodone so close together.

Male | 34

If you've recently used meth and are experiencing a high heart rate and anxiety, prioritize staying hydrated and finding a calm environment to relax in. Avoid any further stimulants like caffeine or nicotine. Consult a doctor about taking hydroxyzine and trazodone together, as they can advise on potential risks and interactions.

I am from South Africa and was vaccinated against measles, does that mean I am vaccinated for mumps and rubella?

Female | 26

If you have been vaccinated against measles it doesn't necessarily mean that you are covered against mumps and rubella. Each of measles, mumps, and rubella is a different disease. They each have their vaccine that is necessary for protection. Mumps may make you have swollen glands while rubella can cause a rash and fever. To be entirely safe, make sure that the mumps and rubella vaccinations are received.
