my wife has a gallstone and we're really worried about it. should we see a specialist or can a regular doctor handle this? is surgery the only way to treat it or are there medicines that can dissolve the stones? what are our options here

It's understandable to be worried about gallstones. While a regular doctor can diagnose and manage gallstones, a gastroenterologist or surgeon specializing in gallbladder issues can offer specialized treatment options. Surgery (cholecystectomy) is often recommended for symptomatic gallstones, but medication and other procedures may be considered.

I've been dealing with this annoying acidity every morning for the last few days. It's like I wake up and feel this urge to vomit, and sometimes there's a lot of gas too. Lately, it even feels like there's acid being released or something. Could you tell me what might be going on and what I should do?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux. I recommend taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help with gas. Make sure to avoid spicy and acidic foods, as well as eating at least 2-3 hours before bedtime to help alleviate your symptoms.

I'm dealing with ongoing dysentery and constipation issues and nothing I've tried is working. Spicy foods just make it worse by causing a lot of acid and more dysentery. Even meds like O2 aren't helping. I've started using Aloe Vera juice and green tea to see if it makes a difference. I'm feeling really weak and am losing weight. What else can I try or what should I do to improve my situation?

For chronic dysentery and constipation, you can try taking Loperamide (Imodium) for dysentery and a stool softener like Docusate Sodium (Colace) for constipation. In addition to Aloe Vera juice and green tea, you can also try probiotics like Align or Culturelle to help with your digestive issues. Make sure to stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet with plenty of fiber. If you continue to feel weak and lose weight, it is important to consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
