I'm dealing with constant burps throughout the day for about a month now. I've visited the doctor three times and tried different medicines like Pantocid DSR and Rantac MPS for the first 10 days without any relief. Then, the doctor switched me to Sompraz L for another week, and now I'm taking Ganaton. I don't have any abdominal pain, I'm eating less spicy and oily foods, drinking plenty of water, and I don't smoke or drink. I go for regular walks and I'm not overweight, but I still feel like there's air bubbling up my throat, making me feel like I need to burp it out. There's no smell or taste to these burps, but it's messing up my daily life and it's really embarrassing around others. The doctor has now suggested I get an endoscopy this weekend to find out what's going on. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this or any tips on how to control it?

It's good that your doctor has recommended an endoscopy to further investigate the issue. You can continue with your current lifestyle modifications of avoiding spicy and oily foods, staying hydrated, and maintaining regular physical activity. These measures, along with the prescribed medications, may help alleviate your symptoms until the underlying cause is identified through the endoscopy.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my health right now. I've been dealing with some pain in my waist and had typhoid fever recently. I just got my blood tests back, and my SGOT is at 59 while my SGPT is at 64. I'm wondering if these levels are something I should be worried about. Does this mean there's a big problem, or could it be related to the fever? Would really appreciate some advice on this.

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.
