Dr. Pathikonda, patiently, sought answers to his questions, to make a determination of the likely issue. Testing would be necessary to accurately diagnosis. Which was scheduled. Dr. Pathikonda prescribed prescription medication, advised to change some over the counter medications, and dietary changes to control the symptoms and discomfort in the mean time.
