It can be due to medicine most probably. But there are other reason too like internal bleeding. Need more details about your mother's digestion issue to advise you better. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and further guidance.

I am suffering from irritable bowel syndrome since childhood. But it has worsened in last few months. I also have hiatus hernia herd (la grade c), diagnosed in june, 2018. I have been taking colospa x (twice before food, lunch and dinner), pan it and ib set (one each, empty stomach in mng). I have also been taking extremely controlled diet. Wheat products are banned, leafy vegetables, milk and milk products (except curd and butter milk), citrus fruits, raw carrots and tomatoes etc. I have roti made from soya, raging, bajra aata (flour), fibre intake, fruits like guava, apples, papaya etc. Which clean stomach. I also used to suffer from constipation. I have started taking lukewarm jeers water early morning. I feel it has started cleaning my bowel effectively. I also suffer from bipolar disorder and have been under medication since 4 years. My Dr. has advised aforesaid medications for ibs and hiatus hernia to go on for another 3 months. I want to stop the medicines as they must be causing side effects but at the same time wary of aggravating ibs and hiatus hernia. please advise.

If cramping pain then take colospa/colospa retard otherwise don't take she can take wherever she has pain and if that rule is followed, there is no specific maximum time duration if pain lasts for many days, better to evaluate.

Since you are an health care provider your self. You also seem to have knowledge about your disease. If you are not getting relief for 4 years then you must meet a qualified doctor who have good experience. To me it looks like IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s diseases and not simple IBS that is irritable bowel syndrom. You need to take different medicine when you have ulcer in colon. please take proper consultation.

Is IBS considered a disability diseases? Because most of the time I am not able to step out of the home. I have taken treatment for IBS several times from DM Gastro doctors which includes Rifaximin, colospa, VSL#3 and other pre-probiotic capsules, different antacids. But there is no relief. Every time I take an allopathy treatment, that worsens the condition.

There are more than two scores of Homoeopathic medicines that are used in the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. The right medicine for each and every patient is selected on the basis of the totality of the symptoms, some of which may even be unrelated to the disease. The mental or psychological state of the patient is fully taken into account while prescribing the right medicine for each patient

I have a small 4.9 mm kidney stone in my right kidney. For the past 60 days, my whole abdomen is paining severely from 11 am to 9 pm. That does not mean all day long but the pain appears frequently in these hours. Does this stone causing the pain? Because I have some other problems related with urination. I drink 3 lit water. So, I go to pee 15-17 times a day since teenage. But now I have a new problem like difficulty in peeing. I have a strong urge to pee but when I go to pee, it takes 5 to 10 minutes to start. Sometimes it get obstructed. I have to force to pee. I hold my urine a lot because of place. So, I consulted 2 Doctors but both of them took my condition very lightly. They told that I have anxiety problem because my ultrasound and x-ray reports are normal. Blood sugar, thyroid, BP is ok. My urine has no infection. So, they took it like a joke. They told that I have mental stress. I will die Doctor if you take my disease lightly. This is very serious for me and painful too. For the past 60 days, I stayed at home, unable to go anywhere because of severe abdomen pain. If it is anxiety then why does it pain in my whole abdomen for the past 60 days? I can feel my pain but both Doctor didn't. What's wrong with me and my medicines? Why it's not working a little bit after a strict diet? Please tell me Doctor what's wrong? I can not move, can not work, can not low down or bend because of pain in right side of my naval. I am unable to go college because I can not walk a little. My exams are coming. So, my future will be spoiled if not treated soon. One more thing to add, in 13th december one boy hit me with a punch in my liver area. And I had some pain of the impact for 4 days. Does it causing pain after 2 months? I also eats rich, spicy, oily food in december, january. I leads a unhealthy life style since 4 years. No physical activity, video game, late night sleep, wake up late. I do not drink milk and vegetables. First Doctor, after seeing my reports, has diagnosed that I had Irritable Bowel Syndrome. So he gave me Colospa retard for 15 days. He told me to change my diet to recover soon. I did the same. But after 1 month no recovery at all. Still lot of pain in my abdomen. So, I consulted a Gastroenterologist. He gave me 1) Menoctyl (twice) 2) Veloz 20 (once) 3) Drotin DS (SOS) for 1 month I am taking this medicines for the past 11 days. But no relief. Still there is a lot of pain. Now I am frustrated with allopathy. So I decided to take homeopathy. Is that a right choice? Tell me doctor please. And tell me the exact name of foods to be avoided for preventing further kidney stones in future? Does 4.9 mm need any surgery in future?

Yes your choice is right. It seems from your description that you are suffering from urethral stricture. Homoepathic treatment cures it as well as stone. You can consult me for both treatment together.
