Avatar f tn t gained any but had gastroenteritis at 5.5 weeks and lost a few pounds. Coupled with my loss of appetite I have no hope! Lost at the beginning with my son too. Gained that back at 25 weeks and then put on a further 12lbs or so by the time he was born.
Avatar n tn Hi, I had norovirus at the end of November which turned into gastroenteritis, nearly 5 weeks later I an still suffering from mostly nausea which is stopping me from eating, I'm very concerned about my weight loss, my doctor has checked bloods bloods pressure etc and all is well.
Avatar m tn I was wanting to if anyone has found a way to help gain weight with the Gastroenteritis? He is having a very hard time with this. Also if someone could help with the fact that he burps and it smells so bad and I know what it is from and that he can't help it. But is there anything he can do to help the smell? He gets embarrassed when we go out to eat and he is making the place smell around him. Any help would help out so much!
1872406 tn?1320890391 We rescued a little kitten approx 6 weeks old who has been diagnosed with viral gastroenteritis. The prognosis by the vet is poor and I'm wondering if there is anything else we can do other than keep her hydrated and treat/prevent secondary infections. Please help- really appreciate any advice or past experience that you may have... Thanks in advance...
Avatar f tn Different things can cause this type of bloating PLUS weight loss from gluten intolerance to things like pancreatic or ovarian cancer (do not worry until you have to worry!!) But your age would be helpful.
Avatar m tn Hi. Good morning! Would some doctor please help me with this situation I'm going through? On November 4 I had a risky intercourse (receptive anal intercourse, the condom broke). 50 days later, on December 24, I had hives and angioedema (lips and eyes). I went to see my dermatologist. She diagnosed me with urticaria. She gave me betamethasone and loratadine. The same day, both the hives and the angioedema went away and did not come back.
Avatar f tn Hello, I cannot confirm without examination,but it sounds like gastroenteritis. It can often cause sudden and sometimes violent upsets and may be confused with spastic colitis.Dizziness is caused by loss of water and electrolyte imbalance because of vomitings. Take adequate fluids throughout the day. The BRAT diet (ie, bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) or soft easily digestible semisolid diet can also be taken. Antimicrobial therapy is indicated for some bacterial gastroenteritis infections.
Avatar f tn Profound fatigue, itching, plunging platelets, weight loss (65 pounds), depression, and multiple infections. Flu,gastroenteritis,urinary tract. Anybody else experience the same or similar? I have not started treatment yet. Hepatologist is reluctant to treat because of side effects. I have been unable to work for over a year. Anybody know anything about whether or not I should file for disability?
Avatar f tn I experienced fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, and very bad indigestion. Yesterday when symptoms started, I took zofran. I have emetophobia. I have since taken two more zofran and Pepto. No vomiting or diarrhea, but I did wake up with a bad headache. I haven’t eaten a lot lately. Does this mean I will be sick for a longer period of time? How will the virus shed?
Avatar f tn r n they did blood work n a ultrasound which came back normal. I was think gallbladder stones idk.. So doctor diagnose me with gastroenteritis prescribe me pain killers. N next morning with the dull pain that comes n goes. Ouch! Is it normal???? Im scared im praying to god to please let it not be nothing else..
Avatar n tn My daughter is 14 months old and she has has watery diarrhea and vomitting. When she was born she was perfectly healthy, but once I had to return to work I began to give her formula and that's when she began to have these complications. She began to have watery diarrhea and vomit. I took her to the doctor and they said she had gastroenteritis, but it's been a while now and she is still the same? Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thank you.
Avatar n tn I went up there and took her to the doctor and she was basically told is was a stomach virus (gastroenteritis) drink plenty of fluids and it should go away in a couple of days but when I look up Gastroenteritis it says that it's common in people with weaken immune system caused by HIV. She took her 3 month birth control shot the morning before but I'm sure that didn't cause Gastroenteritis. My question is should I be concerned about HIV at this point.
Avatar n tn Hello! I seem to have unfortunately caught gastroenteritis. I was given Ondansentron and it helped immensely. However, I can't sleep. I'm so wired and my stomach still hurts but luckily, no side effects. Is this normal? Is it the gastroenteritis or the drug?
1806721 tn?1554333407 And for the IBS-D sufferers, could you please share some tips on how to manage your symptoms and control the rapid weight loss? Thanks so much!!!!!
Avatar f tn I have also lost my appetite and weight and had terrible diaherra. I visited my GP and he says I have gastroenteritis and the symptoms should pass. My GP wouldn't give me antibiotics and asked me to send a stool sample, which I am waiting on the results of. However the symptoms are not passing and I'm not getting better, I am not getting any worse either. Normally I shake things in a couple of weeks, but seem to be struggling with this.
Avatar f tn Hi, as long as your appetite is good, you are eating well and do not have loss of weight, you don't need to worry. Stool consistency can vary depending on the food you eat. Sometimes premenstrual changes can cause alterations in stool consistency. So, dont worry. Regards.
Avatar m tn Age, 29 Male. For the last 4-5 days I have had a loss in my appetite. I just do not feel hungry. I still eat for the sake of eating regularly. I believe this all stems back to 5-7 days ago when I had some bad salsa. My stool would be at a 3 or 4 but now it is a 5(based on the Bristol Stool Scale). After eating that salsa, I noticed red spots in the stool for a day or 2, so I stopped eating anything that had red in it, and monitored my stool.
Avatar m tn been hospitalized for vertigo last Oct 1-5, having bloating, reflux, cant sleep well at night for 5 days now, dizzy, having panic attacks, weight loss. been to doctors and they said that im ok as well as labs. this happened to me before in 2007 and one day after defecating, i felt a worm protruding in my anus but it came back inside.
Avatar f tn I have had gastroenteritis for years. I also have gastric reflux a lot now that I am almost 90. The fat around my belly / stomach area is terribly uncomfortable. I have spondylitis of the spine so cannot do the exercises I used to lose weight previously. I do not move much and worry the fat if a symptom of some disease. I complained to my doctor about the nuisance of the fat and he said, "If it is fat" and he did not elaborate. Cancer is a horrible thought.
Avatar m tn t eat any junk food spicy food or oily food I went to emergency 4-5 times with fast heart beat with gas but this moment last long for 1-2 hrs only hospital and me home each time said every thing fine see your gp and I meet another dr he did all my blood test and said need some exercise weight loss my weight is 91 kg and height 5.
Avatar f tn On day 7 of a severe case of gastroenteritis. Everything seems to have calmed down, but once I try and eat anything stomach cramps start, which are unbearable. Sometimes followed by diarrhoea. Is this normal after a severe case of gastroenteritis or do I need to see my G.P again?
Avatar m tn I also have had a loss in appetite, increased gas, very painful bowel movements, and occasional cramps. A constant urge to urinate or bowel movement. Its all occurred over 4 to 5 days.
Avatar f tn I went to the doc after 5 days. He said its just viral gastroenteritis. I looked up the condition and it says you have vomiting and/or diarrhea, but i have neither. I am worried it is appendicitis, but the appendix is on the right side, not left. I am really in pain but i am taking my meds as described. Does this sound like viral gastroenteritis to you? I am in such severe pain just laying here typing this and barely moving.. Please help. Thank you.
