I'm dealing with a lot of hyper acidity, and I've noticed I occasionally get palpitations. All my tests like blood work, ECG, and Echo are normal, but these palpitations have me worried. Is it possible that my acid reflux is causing these palpitations?

View allI'm really worried because I had this sharp, stabbing pain on the left side of my chest yesterday. My family doctor prescribed me some gastric tablets like Ocid and Topnac P. But now, whenever I burp, it feels like something is poking or pricking me on the left side of my chest. I'm wondering if this is just muscle tightness or if it could be something more serious like a heart issue or just gastric problems. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing gastric issues rather than heart-related problems or muscle tightness. The medications you have been prescribed are Ocid for gastric issues and Topnac P for pain relief. Ocid helps reduce stomach acid production and Topnac P is a pain reliever. The symptoms you are describing, such as sharp pinning pain in the left side of your chest and a pricking feeling when burping, are common symptoms of gastric problems. It is important to take the medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up with them if the symptoms persist or worsen.

My wife has an 18 mm stone in her gall bladder and sometimes she feels pain because of it. I'm wondering if there are ayurvedic treatments for this or if she will have to rely only on allopathic medicine.
For an 18 mm gallbladder stone, Ayurvedic treatments like certain herbs (e.g., Gokshura, Triphala) may help manage symptoms, but they might not dissolve large stones. Allopathic treatment, including possible surgery or non-invasive methods like lithotripsy, is usually recommended for stones of this size. It's best to consult a doctor for a personalized approach.

I'm trying to understand what it means to have grade I fatty liver. Should I be worried about it? I already saw a doctor and did all the tests, but he didn't prescribe any medication. Instead, he suggested I cut down on fatty foods, lose some weight, and come back in three months. Does this mean it's not that serious? Could lifestyle changes really make a difference, and should I be doing anything else in the meantime?
Grade I fatty liver does not cause symptoms and can be reversible with lifestyle changes. Your doctor's advice to reduce fat content in food, lose weight, and follow up after three months is appropriate for managing Grade I fatty liver. It is important to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, engage in regular physical activity, and achieve gradual weight loss if overweight or obese. There is no specific medication recommended for Grade I fatty liver, as lifestyle modifications are the mainstay of treatment
