Hello,
As per your clinical history is concerned, please follow like this:
1) Do a clinical examination by your treating Doctor [gastroenterologist] and to confirm the exact cause do few investigations like [Capsule endoscopy, Colonoscopy, and MRI scan].
2) Discuss with your Doctor about [Ciprofloxacin & metronidazole] and take other medications after all investigations.
3) Do take [Iron, Vitamin B 12 and calcium] with multivitamin regularly.
Do follow few lifestyle modifications like this:
1) Try to limit dairy products and use an enzyme product such as [Lactaid].
2) Try low-fat foods and avoiding butter, margarine, cream sauces and fried foods.
3) Limit fiber, such as fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains et cetera and cabbage families, such as broccoli and cauliflower, and nuts, seeds, corn, and popcorn.
4) Try to avoid other foods like Spicy foods, alcohol, and caffeine et cetera.
5) Eat small meals. You may find you feel better eating five or six small meals a day rather than two or three larger ones.
6) Try to drink plenty of fluids daily. Alcohol and beverages that contain caffeine stimulate your intestines and can make diarrhea worse, while carbonated drinks frequently produce gas.
7) Make a plan to manage stress and avoid smoking.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
