Brief Answer:
Possible IBS.Symptoms will resolve with time.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I can certainly understand your concerns.
As per your symptoms, you possibly seem to have Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS).
And you have been prescribed the right kind of treatment so far by your doctor.
NORMAXIN has that side effect of causing diarrhea, which resolve on its own.You can discontinue its use after 1 week.
Since colonoscopy is normal , you need not worry much.
Regular physical exercise and control of stress and anxiety will keep symptoms of IBS away.
Continue tab NEXITO as earlier prescribed for 3 to 6 months from now.This will be very useful.
Regular physical exercise for 20min a day will help.
I advice you to take 2 spoons of Lactifiber powder in water at bedtime for 2 weeks to improve stool consistency and reduce symptoms. I generally prescribe this to my patients.
Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe LACTIFIBER to you.
Eat fruits like Apple and Pomegranate on regular basis.
Symptoms will resolve with time and medications. Don't worry.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.

Brief Answer:
Not a Pancreatic or a liver disease
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I can certainly understand your concerns.
I apologize for the delayed response considering my hectic work schedule.
This is certainly not related to liver or a Pancreatic disorder.An Ultrasound abdomen can be handy.
You seem to maintain good average weight and in my perspective there is no need to increase it further considering the increasing risk of heart disease with age.
But however, you can positively gain good weight by consuming protein rich foods like Egg, Apples, Soy and Oat meal regularly.
These foods will not increase blood lipids.
