I've been feeling this heaviness and tightness on the left side of my chest for over a month now. It all started after eating some oily food. In the mornings, when my stomach is empty, I feel fine, but after breakfast, the heaviness kicks in, though it's not always persistent. Sometimes, I feel normal again. Can you help me figure out what's going on and suggest any treatments or medications? I'm getting a bit concerned.

Chest heaviness and tightness, especially after consuming oily food, may indicate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acid reflux, or dyspepsia; consider consulting a gastroenterologist

I've had fistula surgery a week ago and was told to take Smuth syrup, 15ml dosage, but it led to diarrhea. I cut back to 10ml, which helped with the stool softness, but I'm still going to the bathroom twice a day. Is it okay if I drop it down to 5ml? What should I do?

You can try reducing the dose of Smuth syrup to 5ml, but consult your surgeon or doctor first, as they may recommend adjusting the dose based on your individual needs and bowel movements, and also ensure you're drinking plenty of water and eating fiber-rich foods to support a smooth recovery from fistula surgery.

I'm worried because my AST and ALT enzyme levels are high. Is it safe for me to take Liv 52 with these elevated enzymes? I'm also concerned because my alkaline phosphate and globulin levels are up too. Would taking Liv 52 worsen my condition, or could it help bring the levels down?

NO THEY ARE NOT DUE TO LIV 52. NO ANY HARM IF ALK. PHOSPHATE OR GLOBULINE IS HIGH. THESE VALUES CHANGE TIME TO TIME. SOME TIME FROM LABORATORY TO LABORATORY AS TECHNIC IS DIFFERENT. DON'T WORRY, CONTINUE LIV 52.
