My 36 year old son has constant diahhrea vomits daily, his stomach is hugh. his doctor office called and said his alkaline, neutrophils, are high. My son has schizophrenia and takes 4 medications. We can t get into the doctor for 2 more weeks, should we wait that long? He only eats once a day and its a very small amount he gets full fast so I can t see how his belly got so big???
Hello, This enlarged belly seems to be something quite new and abnormal in terms of USUAL body shape and size.  It sounds like he is producing an awful lot of gas resulting in ABDOMINAL DISTENTION.  One reason could be the presence of H. Pylori which is a common infection in the stomach and is easily tested for and treated with certain antibiotics.  The elevated neutrophil count may be signaling some type of infection.  The elevated ALP (alkaline phosphatase) levels could indicate some type of liver or gall bladder issue and this could also account for the increased amount of gas being produced in the GI tract.  If he has diarrhea and vomits daily and doesn't eat very well then, my concern is for deny Chat Doctor.  If the doctor's office is not willing to somehow get an appointment for him then, I would recommend 2 choices.  An URGENT CARE CENTER which may be able to at least make sure he's well HY
