Q What should I prepare before the consultation?
A Organizing when your bloating or epigastric pain is worst, which foods or situations aggravate them, the medications you're taking, and any test results will make the consultation faster and more accurate.
Detailed Answer
It helps greatly to note when your symptoms began, whether they're worse after eating or on an empty stomach, whether bloating or epigastric pain is the main issue, and which foods or stressful situations aggravate them. If you bring along the digestive aids or stomach medicine you're currently taking and recent endoscopy or other test results, a more accurate consultation is possible.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
Such records become clues to whether it's the postprandial distress type or the epigastric pain type, and to the lifestyle patterns and causes hidden behind the symptoms. The more thorough your preparation, the more precise a treatment direction we can set at the first visit.
