Suggest Treatment When I'm Progressively Feeling Worse With Slight Blood In Stool, Vomiting And Dry Heaves Leading To Severe Stomach Pain
Question: Hello. For the past 7 days I've progressively felt worse: blood in my stool (little), vomiting and dry heaving to the point my stomach really hurts. My stomach already hurt from too much naproxen. Began with headaches. I am on pain management and I ran out early this month so I may have over done it with the acetaminiphin and naproxen. I'm being tested for a possible tumor on my adrenal gland and I have to go in for a 2nd biopsy of a fibroid tumor in my cervix. I also have dry mouth and my entire body is having random spasms - think I'm either dehydrated or low on potassium. Seeing a hemotologist to check my iron and will also go to my primary.
Brief Answer:
Can be related to gastritis or electrolyte imbalance.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The blood in stool and vomiting can be related to gastritis related to the pain killers that you were having. Stopping the pain killers will help.
The random spasms and dry mouth can be related to fluid and electrolyte imbalance. You need to increase the intake of electrolyte rich fluids like Garotade and fresh fruit juices and see if it helps.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
