I'm experiencing a tight feeling in my stomach and a lot of gas. I don't really want to eat or drink water, and I'm feeling pretty weak because of it. Could you recommend any tablets for better bowel movements? I'm not sure what to do.

View allI've been having this dull chest pain for about two weeks now, and I can't shake the worry. It's mostly on the left side and sometimes comes with numbness and pain in my left arm and shoulder. Plus, I notice it more after doing any physical activity. On another note, I've been having green stools for the last couple of days, along with bloating, gas, and constipation. I even tried taking Dulcoflex, but it just resulted in watery green stools. I had two ECGs done, and both were normal, so my cardiologist thinks its unlikely to be a heart condition. I'm also dealing with obesity, gallstones, and kidney stones, and I've been on meds for acidity and muscle pain for a couple of weeks without any relief. Im not sure what I should do next. Should I see a gastroenterologist or stick with the cardiologist? I'm really confused about what these symptoms could mean. What do you suggest I do next?
That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest

I'm supposed to get an operation as my doctor recommended, but I'm really not comfortable with endoscopy surgery. On top of that, I'm working and it's tough to get time off. Is there any alternative option that might work for me?

I'm a 31-year-old woman considering laparoscopic surgery to remove just my gallstones without taking out the gallbladder. Will I be okay long-term or is it better to remove the whole gallbladder? Also, could this cause any issues if I have a second pregnancy later?
Removing just the gallstones without the gallbladder is generally discouraged, as the gallbladder is not vital, and removing it can lead to a simpler, more straightforward procedure. While you can live with the gallbladder and just remove the stones, studies show that removal of the gallbladder is the most reliable long-term solution for gallstones. Furthermore, removing the gallbladder doesn't pose long-term problems for women, and it is unlikely to cause any issues with future pregnancies
