How weird, my mom just had this, and I had never heard about it before that. All the above is correct, but I just wanted to add that you ought to get it treated soon and change your diet around accordingly. My mom almost died from it, which is unheard of, and she ended up having a foot of intestine being taken out. Watch out! It can get pretty damn serious.

He should be asking about the condition of his stomach lining to make sure he doesn't have any ulcers that could be hampering his ability to digest food properly. He should also stay away from soda and coffee (they are acidic and could make his problem worse.) And last but not least important he needs to ask to see a specialist (some doctors need to be pushed for a referral. if you are not getting what you need switch primary care). There could be other issues causing his problem it seams like his doctor is more focused on treating the symptoms, and not the cause.

The Stomach's acid is used to destroy the bacteria found in food, the enzymes found in the stomach are used to break down Carbohydrates further, and the folds are used to mix everything easier.\n\nWithout the stomach acid, bacteria would be higher in the body creating more WBC but overworking the lymph nodes and causing a constant fever, but the waste from the large intestine would still be able to release some.  The enzymes in the stomach are similiar to the ones found from the salivary glands and the pancreas.  This means, the pancreas would be on overdrive creating more enzymes for the carbohydrates.  And the mechanical digestion is aided by chewing and the moving from the small intestine, all that would be needed is more chewing.

My husband had that! It's called gastridous. An infection in the lining of the stomach. It hurt him real bad and he was laying on the floor throwing up one minute and dirreah(?spelling) the next. He went to the doctor and that's what it was. He has to watch how much sorrow stuff and pizza and real greasy hot foods that he eats, ecspecially late at night. But eventually it healed, and your brothers will too, if he follows good health instructions.

Heartburn, diarrehea, constipation? Those are the 3 that some to mind. Vomiting could also be one, but that's more of a sour stomach.

I think the medical term for this is ascites which is fluid in the stomach. If so, the diagnosis code or ICD-9 code is 789.5.

First, try sipping plain water slowly. Start out with a couple of sips, and see if you hold it down. Try drinking the water normally, and see if that works. Then, try gatorade or an electrolyte solution(pedialyte or similar, availiable at a pharmacy). DONT drink clear soda, this will irritate your stomach. Once you know you can hold down water, try the other liquids you need for nutrition, since you won't be able to hold down solids yet. Once a day passes, you can try some solids. Start out with crackers and bread, and make sure you hold it down until you move on. You can try watery fruits, like watermelon or melons, too. The last thing you should eat is dairy and especially meat, as they require a lot of energy to break down, which when you have a stomach virus, you don't have. Hope this helps, feel better!

Stomach and Large Intestine are the important ones.

Stomach flu is a viral infection that affects the stomach and small intestine. It is also called viral gastroenteritis. The illness is usually brief, lasting 1 to 3 days. . The virus can be spread by direct contact with an infected person (for example, kissing or shaking hands) or by sharing food, drink, or eating utensils. \n\nWhen you have stomach flu, you may have one or more of the following symptoms: \n\nnausea \nvomiting \nstomach cramps \ndiarrhea \nmild fever \nfatigue \nchills \nloss of appetite \nmuscle aches. \n\nThe illness may develop over a period of hours, or it may suddenly start with stomach cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea. \n\nHow is it treated? \nThe most important thing to do is to rest the stomach and intestines. You can do this by first eating nothing solid and drinking only clear liquids. A little later you can eat soft bland foods that are easy to digest. \n\nIf you have been vomiting a lot, it is best to have only small, frequent sips of liquids. Drinking too much at once, even an ounce or two, may cause more vomiting. \n\nYour choice of liquids is important. If water is the only liquid you can drink without vomiting, that is okay. However, if you have been vomiting often for a long time, you must replace the minerals, sodium and potassium, that are lost when you vomit. Ask your health care provider what sport drinks or other commercial electrolyte replacement drinks could help you replace these minerals. \n\nOther clear liquids you can drink are weak tea and apple juice. You may also drink soft drinks without caffeine (such as 7-UP) after letting them go flat (lose their carbonation). Chilling the liquids may help you keep them down. Avoid liquids that are acidic (such as orange juice) or caffeinated (such as coffee) or have a lot of carbonation. Do not drink milk until you no longer have diarrhea. \n\nYou may start eating soft bland foods when you have not vomited for several hours and are able to drink clear liquids without further upset. Soda crackers, toast, plain noodles, gelatin, eggs, applesauce, and bananas are good first choices. Avoid foods that are acidic, spicy, fatty, or fibrous (such as meats, coarse grains, vegetables). Also avoid dairy products. You may start eating these foods again in 3 days or so, when all signs of illness have passed. \n\nSometimes treatment includes prescription medicine to prevent nausea and vomiting or diarrhea. Nonprescription medicine is available for the treatment of diarrhea and can be very effective. If you use it, make sure you use only the dose recommended on the package. If you have chronic health problems, always check with your health care provider before you use any medicine for diarrhea. \n\nIf you have been vomiting for more than a day or have had diarrhea for over 3 days, call your health care provider. You may need to have an exam to rule out more serious problems and to check for dehydration. You may also need to have lab tests to determine whether bacteria or germs such as giardia are causing your illness. \n\nDehydration is a potentially serious complication of stomach flu. It can occur if your body loses too much fluid because you keep vomiting or having diarrhea. If you are severely dehydrated, you may need to be given fluids intravenously (IV). In children and older adults, dehydration can quickly become life threatening. \n\nhttp://www.med.umich.edu
