<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hello,i have pain in my stomach which lingers into my ribs pain in my lower back also my mouth tastes like metal i have asore throat and a cough...im urinating quite often ive lost my appetite ive been on antibiotics for aweek but the symptoms havnt disappeared.could you advice me Regards  <response>: Hi. It is a course of an antibiotic has not helped to solve your problem, obviously you have to go for some tests. I would advise ultrasound of abdomen to know the condition of liver, pancreas, kidneys, gall bladder and other organs. A routine blood urine stool tests to rule out any general problems like diabetes. There can be a problem with the liver, some sort of hepatitis leading to these problems or related to urinary system. I would advise going for the tests as per advise of your treating Doctor.
