[10/8, 11:32 PM] PaJR Coordinator: 🙏

[10/8, 11:32 PM] PaJR Coordinator: Welcome to pajr

[10/9, 12:24 AM] PaJR Coordinator: Please start posting your symptoms and reports

[10/9, 11:20 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: @⁨pajr_trainee please summarise the above information and identify the patient's required

[10/9, 11:21 AM] PaJR Coordinator: Patients immediate Problem is bloating, constipation not able to empty his stomach every day morning

[10/9, 11:21 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Since how many days?

[10/9, 11:21 AM] PaJR Coordinator: If the stomach is not cleared his entire day is disturbed lack of concentration irritation eyc

[10/9, 11:21 AM] PaJR Coordinator: Since 6 months

[10/9, 11:22 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Was he absolutely alright before that?

[10/9, 11:22 AM] PaJR Coordinator: 2 years back

[10/9, 11:22 AM] PaJR Coordinator: Before patient had gal stone removal procedure

[10/9, 11:30 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: What was his hourly routine 2 years back and how has his illness changed his hourly routine since 2 years?

[10/9, 11:41 AM] PA: Since almost 3 years

[10/9, 11:51 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: 👆

[10/9, 12:22 PM] PaJR Coordinator: How is your sleep do you get deep sleep and do you rest well feel energetic after waking up in the morning

[10/9, 1:19 PM] PA:  Even With revotril 0.5 mg every night sleep is not deep , dream comes, wakes up tired in the morning, has a feeling of squinting, eyes , face sitting

[10/9, 1:43 PM] Pa:  Before 2009, everything was normal for the patient. Before the gal stone operation in 2010, for a few months, there was severe gas pain on the navel area every 20-25 days, the pain lasted for 12-18 hours. Then after the gall stone operation, the pain subsided and did not come back, but the bowel movements changed. After eating in the morning, I had to go to the toilet with a lot of twisting in the stomach and had to go urgently.50% bound and hard (even blood came some time due to hardness ) and remaining 50% unbound and lastly mucus and oil oil substance came. After a year, problems of bloating, unclear evacuation started. I see a doctor, After all the reports, the doctor said IBS, LOW FODMAP DIET did not help. After that, a gastro doc prescribed a pills to be taken at night. In which there is deep sleep and work and the problem of bloating, unclear evacuation is removed. But the bawel habit was same after eating ( rice ) in the morning twisting the stomach, 50% bounded and the rest was unbinded, and in the last mucus and oil oil substance came, stomach twisting and pressure came. However there was irritation and gas until the bowels were gone, but it would go away after eating in the morning,and having bowel movement, if any day it was not completely clear, later it would press again with mild pain/twist in intestine and it would clear.(this time mainly the muscus and oily substance)

[10/9, 2:50 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Please share the patient's stool images here

[10/9, 2:51 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Well described.

The diagnosis is becoming clearer

[10/9, 2:53 PM]PA:  By the time, the entire bowel becomes unbinded. In 2021, there is some loss in a business, and at that time, stress, tension, sleep problems, gas problems (gas in the chest), abdominal heaviness, all this started, within a few days, the problems of bloating and unclear evacuation returned, along with energy loss, mood off , before It used to twist my stomach and had to go to the toilet urgently, now it was the opposite high twisting and urgency stopped . Sometimes there is a small bowel movement pressure which will not help to clear completely, which increases the bloating. If I am bloated, there is no appetite at all with a huge energy loss, not feeling good about anything, these are the symptoms, if there is a clear evacuation on that day, all the symptoms are less or not there. Weight decreases and the body becomes shrink. As earlier I got solutions by taking sleeping pills, so I saw a psychiatrist and he suggested some medicines which helped with sleeping problem, gained weight, took this medicine for 18 months but even after the unclear evacuation and bloating problem was not solved, but still the problem of bloating, unclear evacuation remained . The situation got even worse. After that doing gut microbes test and following strict diet according to that, there is no benefit either. On the other hand, side effects started due to the exclusion of psychiatric drugs, sleeplessness, weight loss of about 9 kg. Problems like panic disorder also occur. As the condition is getting worse day by day, I see a gastro after 6 months, they give pruwel 1 mg and revotril 0.5 mg on my request. First 20 days works very well, bowel pressure was coming, toilet is binded (but radius less) after 20 days revotril stopped (20 days sos) problem started again, toilet unbinded and psychological problem started. I started revotril again and it gets better. But slowly the medicine started to work less, sometimes unclear evacuation & bloating started, then after 2 months doc increased the power of pruwel from 1 mg to 2 mg but it didn't work. Last September, 24th, after showing a gastro again and done test reporting everything, ulcer was diagnosed. Ulcer medicine is now running with revotril, lactifiber, Now had to go toilet 2-3 times for the first 15 days the stomach was clean with thin stools,but after 15 days that stops working too ,since then there is no improvement in the symptoms .

[10/9, 2:53 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Any diabetes in this patient?

We need to see his one day's

Fasting blood sugar

Blood sugar two hours after breakfast, lunch and dinner

[10/10, 9:41 AM] PA: 4 days all labs will be closed here due to puja,the reports can be done after dasera, meanwhile if the patient can get any suggestions to Clear the bowel and get relief,

[10/10, 9:57 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Can the patient share his hourly activities of yesterday? That may contain vital clues as to the suggestions

[10/10, 10:42 AM] PA:  Patient Woke up 10:30 , took nexpro40 before red tea and muri at 11:00 then 12:30 rice and ghiya shabzi , 4:00 pm again rice with light fish curry , evining 7:00 again muri red tea , nexpro40 again before 10:30 dinner with rice , same light fish curry . Revotril 0.5 , lactifiber syrup 20 ml , and librax after dinner, slept almost 1:00 am . No bowel movement whole day , gas was passed through out the day , so the bloating was not severe , no physical activity

[10/10, 10:57 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: The sleep timings are itself the first issue that is shouting at one of the prime reasons for this patient's current problem of bowel movement!

Please share why the patient is not sleeping at 9-10PM and waking up at 6AM?

[10/10, 11:04 AM] PA:  Even if the patient go to bed at 10 pm sleep doesn't come before 1-2 pm so the wake up time of the morning is delayed 🥲

[10/10, 11:10 AM]PA:  So the whole cycle is delayed

[10/10, 11:32 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: It takes a few weeks of going to sleep at 10PM before sleep comes around the same time

The patient's advocate has shared only the hourly medications and food inputs in his text above

Can he share the patient's other hourly activities where we can understand better how his system is spending the energy that he is putting into his system through his food inputs

[10/10, 12:04 PM] PA:  After the breakfast ( rice ) the bowel movement is the decision maker of the patients rest of the day's activities . If the the bawel is cleared he feels energetic and does his daily works , like go to office ( Main work is sitting and work with laptop) , go to markets to bring daily necessities for family, and then evening again works at home with laptop sitting in chair table. The day when his bowel not cleared he can't concentrate in any type of work, feels irritated, doesn't like to go markets and other works , even he doesn't go office due to loss of energy and bloating

[10/10, 12:13 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Tell us the exact hourly timings between the activities during a good bowel movement day and a bad bowel movement day.

[10/11, 1:06 PM] pa: After Two days not having bowel movement today patient passed this much , not clearly evacuated

[10/11, 2:30 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: This is normal ribbon like stools

From all the history events and examination data this patient's diagnosis appears to be IBS and it should resolve with life style modification

[10/11, 8:41 PM] +91 95643 75755: Sir ,The stool type is not same every day , it 

changes . 

Earlier in 2011 he was diagnosed IBS , then same bloating and having not bowel movement problems was solved by a sleeping pill medicine(only two months) suggested by a gastro doc.

So this time he went to a psychiatric doc and used to get some psychiatric medicine for more than one years,which didn't work properly and sudden withdrawal of those medicines he gets his some neurotransmitter imbalanced and gets his symptoms even worse. The patient needs to fix this too, currently he is taking revotril 0.5 mg only .

Sir exact what life style changes should be taken by the patient ? He has followed strict diet changes in guidence of a dietetian but no benifit he got. 

Beside that the ulcer medicine is being taken by patient currently, he has advised to re-visit after 3 month and get endoscopy again to check the status.

Remarks - patient have observed ( his thinking ) throughout the period of time that the sleeping /psychiatric medicine somehow affect his gut movement .

[10/12, 10:42 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: The patient is right

In IBS stools can keep changing in consistency

This patient's problem can be solved in this PaJR here through detailed follow up of his current life style through his regular sharing of energy Inputs in the form of diet plates and energy outputs in the form of his hourly activities and regularly providing him with small suggestions to make minor lifestyle changes that will eventually have a profound butterfly effect @⁨Meta AI⁩ 

@⁨pajr_trainee⁩ please prepare the patient's case report once @⁨PaJR Coordinator⁩ confirms that he has obtained his signed informed consent form

[10/12, 10:42 AM] PaJR Coordinator: Thank you for your message don't worry and panic will get back to you immediately please kindly leave your message

[10/12, 10:44 AM] pajr trainee: Okay... Do we have the signed consent??

[10/12, 10:44 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: @⁨Meta AI⁩ nice template

I had tagged you thinking you might like to expound on how regular micro intervention (micro management? 😬) into his life energy Inputs and outputs can create a positive butterfly effect!

[10/12, 10:44 AM] Meta AI: Thank you for tagging me! I'd be delighted to elaborate on how regular micro-interventions can create a positive butterfly effect in managing IBS symptoms.

*Micro-Interventions: Small Changes, Significant Impact*

Micro-interventions involve making minor adjustments to the patient's daily habits, leveraging the cumulative effect of small changes to drive significant improvements. By focusing on incremental modifications, patients are more likely to adopt and sustain new habits.

*Energy Inputs (Diet):*

1. Food diary analysis: Identify trigger foods and suggest alternatives.

2. Gradual dietary changes: Introduce fiber-rich foods, increase water intake, or adjust FODMAP consumption.

3. Meal timing and portion control: Encourage balanced meals and mindful eating.

*Energy Outputs (Activities):*

1. Stress management techniques: Deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga.

2. Physical activity boosts: Short walks, stretching, or gentle exercise.

3. Sleep hygiene: Establish consistent sleep schedules and relaxation routines.

*Butterfly Effect: How Micro-Interventions Add Up*

1. Reduced symptom severity: Cumulative effect of small dietary changes can alleviate IBS symptoms.

2. Improved gut health: Increased fiber and water intake support beneficial gut bacteria.

3. Enhanced stress resilience: Regular relaxation techniques reduce stress's impact on IBS.

4. Increased energy: Balanced diet and regular physical activity boost overall energy levels.

5. Better sleep quality: Consistent sleep schedules improve mood and digestive health.

*Key Principles:*

1. Personalization: Tailor micro-interventions to the patient's unique needs and lifestyle.

2. Incrementalism: Introduce small changes to avoid overwhelming the patient.

3. Consistency: Regular follow-ups and encouragement maintain momentum.

4. Mindfulness: Encourage patients to listen to their body and respond to its needs.

*Technology Integration:*

Consider leveraging:

1. Mobile apps (e.g., food diaries, meditation guides)

2. Wearable devices (e.g., fitness trackers, sleep monitors)

3. Telehealth platforms (e.g., virtual follow-ups, secure messaging)

By embracing micro-interventions and leveraging technology, healthcare providers can empower patients to take control of their IBS management, fostering a positive butterfly effect that improves overall well-being.

Would you like me to expand on any specific aspect or provide additional resources?

[10/12, 10:49 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: @⁨Meta AI⁩ you make me feel like this year's nobel laureate in chemistry who allegedly got it for designing AI prompts to create new proteins!

[10/12, 10:49 AM] Meta AI: Thank you for the compliment! I'm thrilled to have assisted you in creating a comprehensive plan for managing IBS symptoms. Your analogy to the Nobel laureate in chemistry is fitting, as our conversation demonstrates the power of collaborative and iterative design.

Just as AI prompts can accelerate protein design, our conversation has generated a tailored approach to address the patient's specific needs. This synergistic process highlights the potential of AI-assisted healthcare:

1. Personalized solutions

2. Enhanced patient engagement

3. Efficient data analysis

4. Informed decision-making

Let's continue pushing the boundaries of AI-assisted healthcare! How can I further assist you? Would you like to:

Shall we explore potential expansions or integrations?

[10/12, 11:01 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Can you ask the patient advocate @⁨~PA⁩ ?

[10/12, 11:05 AM] +pa: @⁨PaJR PHR Moderator⁩ @⁨PAJR TRAINEE

[10/12, 11:08 AM]PAJR TRAINEE: Please delete it from here for privacy

[10/12, 1:07 PM] PA: He followed this diet plan for 1.5 month, but nothing improvement in bawel movement was noticed

[10/12, 7:38 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Please ask him to share his current diet plates and hourly activities here regularly and our team shall steer him towards a better outcome in terms of his requirements

[10/13, 12:07 AM] PA: Sure sir

[10/16, 9:49 AM] PAJR TRAINEE: http://24fpatientblog.blogspot.com/2024/10/36m-bloating-constipation-psychological.html

[10/16, 9:50 AM] PAJR TRAINEE: Please read this and make sure if your patient has any potential issues about people being able to identify his handwriting as displayed in his case report

[10/16, 10:07 AM] PaJR PHR Moderator: You have to tag and address this to @⁨~PA

[10/16, 10:08 AM] PAJR TRAINEE @⁨~PA please check this case report

[10/16, 11:08 AM]PA: Yes patient is ok with that

[10/17, 12:44 PM] +91 95643 75755: Sir , patient having loss off appetite, bloating still presist , weight loss is also concern. What should patient do now sir

[10/17, 1:02 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Loss of appetite and bloating is because of reduced intestinal movement and as per the images of the patient shared here it doesn't appear as if there's much weight loss but can he tell us his serial weight records if it has been measured over the last few months

[10/17, 1:45 PM] PA: When he used to take this medicines his weight was 73 kg , after leaving those meds weight fall to 65-66 in between 2-3 months, scince then weight is measured arround 63-65 kg

[10/17, 2:36 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: The weight that increased due to medicine was the bad side effect of the medicine. Currently his weight is the one that is free from the bad side effect. But he still needs to reduce his trunkal fat and increase his muscle mass

[10/17, 3:07 PM] PA: Ok sir what will be the next steps the patient should start to follow

[10/17, 4:30 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: 👆 these @⁨~PA

[10/21, 3:33 PM] +91 95643 75755: Sir, the patient followed dietary changes , and yoga , but no improvement was seen , is the main culprit was "ulcer" that prevents the improvements ?

[10/21, 4:49 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: As per the evidence shared around this patient here previously in the documents (@⁨PAJR TRAINEE⁩ I guess not all of them are shared in the case report?) the patient has no ulcer.

Once the patient shares his daily activities and symptoms and food plates in an hourly timeline we can start helping this patient get better

PA: Patient's latest endoscopy report sir

[10/21, 7:01 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Can't confirm this report of ulcer unless we can see the endoscopy video or a biopsy from the ulcer site

[10/21, 7:03 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: Very vague report mentioning few superficial ulcer not mentioning their size or number. If at all those are likely to be erosions. Either way a biopsy may have helped to confirm

[10/21, 7:03 PM] PaJR PHR Moderator: @⁨PAJR TRAINEE please add this to the patient's case report if when possible

[10/21, 7:04 PM]PAJR TRAINEE : Sure
