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.

Is it safe to try for another baby without getting gallbladder surgery first? What risks should I be aware of?* This version keeps the medical details intact, sounds worried but not overly formal, and avoids robotic phrasing. Let me know if you'd like any adjustments!
Having two gallstones, especially one larger than 10mm, increases the risk of complications during pregnancy. While surgery might not be immediately necessary, it's best to discuss your situation with a doctor before trying to get pregnant, as the risk of gallbladder issues can increase during pregnancy. Larger stones are more likely to cause problems like cholecystitis (gallbladder inflammation) or pancreatitis (pancreas inflammation).

It's been 6 days since my gallbladder was removed through laparoscopic surgery because of gallstones but I still haven't had a bowel movement. Urine output is fine but no stool even though I'm taking Duphalac. Is this normal after gallbladder surgery?

I've had this really stubborn cough for about 8 months now and it's sometimes so bad that I end up vomiting. I went to see a doctor and got tested for TB, but that came back negative. My X-ray did show some lower lobe subsegmental pulmonary consolidation. I was on medication for a while, and the cough got better, but as soon as I stopped, it came back. I saw another doctor who suggested it might be a gastric issue and told me to avoid spicy foods and fizzy drinks. But the cough is still here, and it's worse at night, sometimes leading to vomiting. I have to admit, Im still eating spicy foods occasionally, and I'm wondering if that's making it worse. What should I do next?
