Husband can't eat, some stomach pain, pale colored stools

[ljka]

My husband has been sick now for a week. Can't keep anything down. Mild pain in his stomach. Stools are a pale color - almost white. He had a sonogram yesterday that was neg for gallstones. Supposed to have an upper GI.  He has had mild gastro problems for a year.  Often has a low grade fever. His blood tests are normal.  He has taken Prilosec for a few years, Lipitor for one year.  Ever hear that such meds can cause the problems?  The concern is the pale stools and possible liver problems. What should the doc's next test for him be?  Thanks in advance

You mention that your husband has had digestive problems in the past. Exactly what do you mean by this? Has he been diagnosed with other things in the past?

Thanks. He has an appointment with a gastroenterologist next week. Supposed to do and endoscopy.  Just wondered what else my husband could discuss with him. I'll mention your comments.

I'm not a doctor but a CT-Scan of the abdomen and Pelvis could rule out several things.  The blood work would show abnormal conditions such a enzyme levels, white cell count etc.  Get a good Gastroenterologist.
