Q: My husband is having some serious issues and I am running out of ideas to help. He goes from being constipated to having diarreah and is now having stomach cramps from going so much and being hungry. I am looking for something to even him out, something for the stomach pain (Pepto is not working) and something to feed him so he doesn't get sick all over again.
A: Go see your doctor. If you can't do that, then go talk to a pharmacist. There maybe a walk-in clinic near you that could examine him. I found out that I have silent-reflux which resulted in several trips to the ER to get food unstuck from my esophagus. His problem maybe more severe than you think and the best thing to do is see a doctor. I have been on Prilosec since being fixed, they had to stretch the ring at the bottom of the esophagus, and I've had no problems since. You do not want the situation to result in ulcers.
