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.

I'm struggling with some really bad hunger pains. My stomach just keeps cramping and contracting, and I can't stop eating because it seems like the only way to make the cramps go away. It honestly feels like I'm hungry all the time. What could be causing this?

Experiencing persistent hunger and stomach cramps can be distressing. Here are some possible reasons and suggestions: *Possible Causes* 1. *Low Blood Sugar*: Fluctuations in blood sugar levels can trigger hunger and stomach cramps. 2. *Hormonal Imbalance*: Hormones like ghrelin and leptin regulate hunger and fullness. Imbalances can lead to increased hunger. 3. *Nutrient Deficiencies*: Lack of essential nutrients like protein, healthy fats, and fiber can cause hunger and cravings. 4. *Stress and Emotional Eating*: Stress can trigger hunger and emotional eating. *Suggestions* 1. *Eat Regular Meals*: Space out meals to maintain stable blood sugar levels. 2. *Incorporate Protein and Fiber*: Add protein-rich foods like lean meats, beans, and eggs, and fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. 3. *Stay Hydrated*: Sometimes, thirst can masquerade as hunger. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. 4. *Manage Stress*: Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. 5. *Consult a Healthcare Professional*: If hunger and stomach cramps persist, consult a doctor or registered dietitian to rule out underlying medical conditions.

I've been dealing with a fatty liver, and just a couple of months ago, my SGPT levels were at 96. Now, thanks to medication, they've dropped to 63. But now I'm concerned because my direct bilirubin has gone up to 0.6, whereas it was normal before. Should I be worried about this change in bilirubin, and does it mean anything serious about my liver condition or overall health?

Your SGPT levels have improved with medication, but your direct bilirubin has increased. This could indicate ongoing liver inflammation or damage. I recommend you continue with your current medication and also consider adding Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to help improve liver function and reduce bilirubin levels. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for monitoring and further guidance.

Im having trouble brushing my teeth recently because I feel like Im going to vomit, even though the toothbrush doesnt go deep into my mouth. This only started happening in the mornings, which never used to be an issue before. Its weird since Im using the same toothpaste I always have.

Some people have morning sickness better change your tooth paste if still nt reduced take pand tablet (40mg) at night 30 minutes before food.
