I'm experiencing some weird stuff lately and I'm a bit worried. I have this strange pain around my left breast and the left side of my chest, and it's been quite constant. I've also been dealing with a lot of post-nasal drip and burping, plus this odd flapping sensation on the left side of my abdomen. Do you have any idea what could be going on?

View allI've been noticing mucus in my stool for the past few days, and it's been a bit worrying. I had a colonoscopy about ten days ago, and the results came back normal, which was a relief. I've attached the report for reference. I'm really curious about what's causing the mucus and how I should go about treating it. Could you help me understand a bit more about this?
Considering your normal colonoscopy results, mucus in stool may be caused by: Common Causes 1. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) 2. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) 3. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) 4. Infection (bacterial, viral, or parasitic) 5. Food intolerance (lactose, gluten, spicy foods) 6. Hormonal changes 7. Medication side effects (antibiotics, NSAIDs) Treatment Options 1. Dietary changes: - Increase fiber intake - Hydrate adequately - Avoid trigger foods 1. Over-the-counter medications: - Anti-diarrheal medications (e.g., loperamide) - Probiotics 1. Prescription medications (if necessary): - Antibiotics (for bacterial infections) - Anti-inflammatory medications 1. Lifestyle modifications: - Stress management - Regular exercise Next Steps 1. Schedule a follow-up appointment with your gastroenterologist. 2. Provide a stool sample for further analysis. 3. Consider repeating colonoscopy if symptoms persist. Self-Care 1. Stay hydrated. 2. Avoid spicy or fatty foods. 3. Manage stress. 4. Monitor stool frequency and consistency.

I've been having daily loose motions right after I eat anything, and it feels like I always have to rush to the washroom. It's gotten to a point where I cant really control it. What could be causing this, and how can I manage it?

I've been struggling with bile reflux and the symptoms are really bothering me. Are there any surgical options like bile diversion surgery that could help? I'm not sure what to do about this and would appreciate some guidance on managing it
Bile reflux may benefit from bile diversion or Roux-en-Y surgery in severe cases; most patients improve with medication and lifestyle changes.
