Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I had diarrhea for about 20 days. After I recovered, my doctor advised me to do an MRI of the abdomen. These were the results shown. There was a mild signal drop noted in the liver on the T2 fat sequence, suggesting a fatty infiltration. My pancreatic head and uncinate appeared normal. The distal body and tail showed a fatty replacement. Kindly advise.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You have a fatty liver on MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). It is very common. Please say something about the habits you have. Please mention your medical history. Please tell me about your BMI (body mass index). Fatty liver can lead to liver damage and cirrhosis after a long period.
I advise you to check your liver function tests, sugar, and lipid profile. Follow a regular exercise and diet. Try to lose weight. Have healthy food. Revert me with the blood reports. There is no need to take medicines for fatty liver. They will disappear after a lifestyle modification.
I hope this helps.
Kindly revert in case of further queries.
Thank you.
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
My LFT is fine. My lipid profile says that there is a mild increase in triglycerides. My sugar was 133 mg/dL for two days. I have hypertension. I am very social and occasionally an alcoholic. I do not have the habit of taking alcohol on a regular basis. My weight is 66 kilograms. I am worried about the fatty pancreas.
Please help.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
There is no need to worry about the fatty pancreas. Try to do exercise for at least 45 minutes every day. Avoid taking carbohydrates. Take a protein-rich diet. Avoid taking fatty foods and junk foods. Follow these steps for three months and revert to me after a repeated scan report.
I hope this helps.
Kindly revert in case of further queries.
Thank you.

Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
Though I am recovering from diarrhea, I am still feeling the constant urge to defecate. I only went 1-2 times to the bathroom in the morning, but the feeling is like that. Having continuous gas in the stomach to pass out. Kindly suggest any medication for this.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Good that you are better now. It would take some more time for the symptoms to improve and become completely normal. I suggest you take Econorm (Saccharomyces boulardii) capsules twice a day for one week.
I hope this helps.
Kindly revert in case of further queries.

Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
You suggested upper GI endoscopy. As my diarrhea has recovered and I only go two times in the morning, should I still go for an endoscopy? My doctor said it is IBS symptoms, so do I still need to go for an endoscopy?

Yes, endoscopy will exclude other problems.
I hope this helps.

Hi doctor,
I am losing weight very frequently. It went to 64 kg from 65.6 kg in four days. What can be the reason?

Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am still not recovering. What I feel is after eating anything I have to go for bowel. Sometimes I go too. Motion is also not tight. It is like a semi-form which after I pass sat lower down the water. So it is having no shape at all. All the reports are normal even endoscopy and stool blood occult test. Kindly suggest the medication which can stop the bowel and increase my digestive tract as I am losing weight. Kindly help sir. Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
What are the medications you are taking now? Have u taken Econorm?
Patient's Query
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Yes doctor, I am taking Econorm. And currently, I am on Flupentixol 0.5 and Rabeprozole but seems not recovering.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Please take the following with your consultant approval.
1. Tablet Rifagut 400 mg, twice a day for 7 days.
2. Please stop Flupentixol. Start Loperamide 2 mg, twice a day for 2 days.
I would suggest you get a colonoscopy done as the symptoms are persisting. Please revert with the colonoscopy report.
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
My blood occult test is normal. Still, should I need to go for a colonoscopy?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Occult blood test if positive then it is useful, but if negative then it is not of much help. Colonoscopy can help other pathologies.
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
But with Gutrex medication morning stool is normal. But, when I get bowel movement afterwards then it is like semi-form.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I feel you should go for a colonoscopy. There is no specific medicine to cure it blindly, hence we need to diagnose your problem. Please revert with colonoscopy.
Patient's Query
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
You can stop milk and milk products for few days stop Econorm can start capsules: Providac twice a day for one week.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.

Took so many medication as suggested but those medicine was not working properly. During period of 29th August till today I tried 2 times Vitamin B complex suppliment and found betterness than other days.Kindly confirm whether diarrhea can be due to Vitamin B 12 deficiency and weight can be lost due to this. I went for test again 3 days ago and still its lower than the range. Kindly suggest the proper treatment with medication for this situation so that my stomach & overall health remain fine.
