Suffer Severe Gas And Bloating. Suffer Diarhea, Nausea, Vomiting And Fever. Have Profuse Sweating. Suggestions?
I have had severe gas and bloating at night for a few weeks and then ended up with what I can only assume is the stomach flu. Diarhea, nausea, vomiting, fever of 102. Now I have soft, bright yellow stool throughout the day and severe gas and bloating at night, and a constant burning in my stomach that only goes away when I eat, even though it makes me nauseous. It doesn't bother me in the afternoon, just at night while I'm sleeping. It wakes me up and I am sweating profusely in my sleep. I can only assume it's my intestines trying to heal, but why the gas and bloating only at night? Doctor sent off a stool sample to rule out parasites and other causes. I live in Indianapolis and am not sure if there is something going around or not.

You seem to be suffering from duodenal ulcer and your symptoms are typical of it. Eat small frequent meals, avoid spicy and oily food. Majority of time duodenal ulcer are caused by helicobacter pylori infection and eradication of it along with acid suppression is required. Start on Tablet Pantoprozole 40 mg twice a day for atleast 1 month, along with that that HP kit, one kit per day for 10 days. Majority of patients respond to it.

stomach infection as the stomach infection leads to this condition
there is hyperacidity gas that is troubling you
at night the problem increases because when you lie down the acid reflux is easy and acid comes up and exxagerates the condition that is why it increases in night
get metronidazole course
