I'm experiencing pain on the right side of my chest, specifically in the middle area, and it gets worse when I bend down, walk, or move forward. It's been happening since yesterday morning. Even sleeping is tough I feel it when I try to lie down, and it's really painful when I sneeze. I've been on medication for epigastric and antral ulcers for the past five days. Could this chest pain be related to that, or might it be something else? I'm really worried about what's going on.

View allI had laparoscopic fundoplication surgery two months ago but still have trouble swallowing, gastric issues, and discomfort. How long does recovery usually take for these problems to go away and when can I get back to my normal routine?
It's understandable to be concerned about lingering issues after laparoscopic fundoplication. While complete recovery can take 2-3 months for most, some complications like swallowing difficulties, gastric issues, and discomfort can persist longer for some individuals. You should consult with your doctor to address your specific concerns

I'm feeling kind of stuck because my gastroenterologist said I need a colonoscopy for my stomach pain, but I'm trying this new eating schedule where I eat every 33 hours, and fasting is really hard for me. How do I navigate this? Any advice would be really helpful.
Chest Pain Characteristics_ 1. _Intermittent pain_: Pinpoint pain lasting 3-4 seconds, occurring sporadically throughout the day. 2. _Variable location_: Pain located in the center, left, and right sides of the chest. 3. _Burning sensation_: Accompanying burning sensation, which may indicate acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing back up into the esophagus can cause chest pain and burning sensations. 2. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Strained chest muscles or costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone) can cause intermittent chest pain. 3. _Cardiovascular conditions_: Although less likely, given the brief duration and variable location of the pain, cardiovascular conditions like angina or pericarditis should be ruled out. 4. _Anxiety or stress_: Stress and anxiety can manifest as physical symptoms, including chest pain and burning sensations. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a healthcare professional_: Schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms and determine the underlying cause. 2. _Diagnostic tests_: Your doctor may order diagnostic tests, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG), chest X-ray, or endoscopy, to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Lifestyle modifications_: Avoid trigger foods, maintain a healthy weight, and manage stress through relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga. 4. _Monitor symptoms_: Keep a symptom journal to track the frequency, duration, and characteristics of your chest pain and burning sensations.

Here's a natural, conversational rephrasing of the query: *I have two gallstones, one is 12mm and the other is 15mm. 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).
