Doctor's Answer

This is consistent with either some food sensitivity or IBS. Inability to gain weight could be due to poor nutrtional absorption. What I would suggest is start with a Low FODMAP diet to check if your indigestion improves. And find the triggers which cause your indigestion. Avoid eating processed and spicy foods and keep your diet simple and bland. If it is stress based, I would suggest starting some simple deep breathing exercises and including them in your daily life. If the problem still persists, please contact our team as we will need to take a deeper case to understand the problem better.

If you've spent months — or years — trying to get this under control, you already know how draining it is. The restricted diets, the medicines that work only while you're taking them, the hope and the disappointment cycling endlessly. At Thavira, our doctors don't manage gut conditions. They treat the cause, in the right sequence, until healing is complete and medication is no longer needed. 500+ patients treated. 97% success rate.
