Question 1

My bilirubin is 1.3mg, AST 165, ALT 91, and I have a cyst like a lipoma on my chest wall. The fine needle aspiration cytology report came back normal can I still get the lipoma or cyst removed with surgery even though my liver isn't in great shape right now? I've been struggling with alcohol addiction for 4 years and have been taking udiliv 150, two tablets a day for the past 15 days. Is udiliv actually helping my liver? I'm really worried about my liver health because of my alcohol use

Question 2

Found a 5mm gallstone during my checkup but no pain or symptoms yet. Should I consider surgery or try medication to dissolve it? What's the best approach for something this small?

Accepted Answer

Cholecystectomy is advised to the patient.

Question 3

I've been diagnosed with a small hiatal hernia and lax LES through endoscopy, and my symptoms include GERD, throat and heartburn, mouth ulcers, and upper abdomen burning. I've tried so many PPI meds but they make me tired, and if I skip them even for two days, the burning, sour burps, and sleepless nights get unbearable. My doctor says the main issue is my lax LES and that I'll need lifelong meds or surgery, but I'm exhausted from taking PPIs for two years and surgery success rates don't seem great. I'm feeling hopeless sometimes the acid attacks and pain are so bad I can't cope. Can homeopathy actually help fix a lax LES or make GERD go away? I already eat clean homemade food with coriander and cumin, no spicy or oily stuff, plus fruits and curd and do yoga daily, but nothing's working. I don't want false hope just honest advice on whether this can improve.

Accepted Answer

While homeopathy may offer some symptomatic relief for GERD and related issues, it's unlikely to cure a lax LES or hiatal hernia. Homeopathy is a holistic approach that focuses on individual symptoms and constitution, but it lacks robust scientific evidence for treating structural issues like a lax LES.
