Dear Mr XXXXXXX

I would like to have some more additional information for me to able to guide you further. MRI scan does not solve or answer all the abdominal symptoms

1. How long has the pain been present?
2. How long does the pain last?
3. Is there any association with food intake?
4. Is you eating habit healthy and regular?
5. Where exactly do you experience discomfort?

Based on your short history , my preliminary impression is acid peptic disease .

Do get back to me

Take Care

Thank you for your reply . It is present for the last two months , the discomfort lasts for about 30 to 60 minutes . there is no association with food intake . Mt eating is nearly regular but not very healthy during dinner . generally in the upper part of the abdomen I get discomfort or some times at the sides .

Please let me know your views .

From the description it looks to be duodenal ulcer. Pan D will definitely take care of it. If the associated Helicobacter pylori infection is not treatment it coudl lead to recurrence of symptoms.

I would suggest you the following

1. Empirical treatment for H Pylori: 1 kit of Ulcikit or HP kit per day for 14days
2. Regular intake of food
3.Avoid caffeinated/carbonated beverages
4. Avoid alcohol intake if you are in habit of it
5. Avoid spicy/oily food.

Do get back to me for further assistance.

Take Care
