Bro, I have Hashimoto’s, and whenever I eat outside food, even occasionally, I tend to develop symptoms that feel like an infection. My family gastroenterologist usually prescribes Rifagut 400 mg along with Albiox-Pre and a probiotic tablet.
I ate outside food when I went to Chennai two days ago, and now I’m having similar symptoms. What should I do now? Is there any gastroenterologist available at Sun Clinic today?

Hi there. Gut sensitivity following outside food is very common with autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's due to underlying motility changes. However, taking Rifagut empirically each time risks worsening gut dysbiosis.
Please verify duty hours directly with Sun Clinic's reception for in-person gastro consultations today.
If you need immediate medical advice and a proper digital prescription tailored to your symptoms, feel free to book a direct online consult with me here on Practo so we can safely address this.

Your recurrent symptoms after outside food may be due to infective gastroenteritis or an IBS flare, but repeated antibiotics such as Rifagut should be taken only after clinical review.
Because you have Hashimotoâs, dehydration and thyroid status also matter.
I recommend an examination and stool tests if symptoms persist or recur.
Please consult or book on Practo so I can guide treatment safely.
Next Steps
For now use ORS, light meals, and avoid outside food and any trigger foods.
