I'm really concerned about this constant feeling of something pulling in the middle of my stomach between my ribs, and it's paired with heavy breathing. It's been happening for about three months now. I've had tests like Troponin, Stress Echo, X-ray of my chest and lungs, and an ultrasound, and everything came back normal. I've consulted a cardiologist, pulmonologist, and radiologist, but nothing seems to help. A bit of my background: Ive been taking Tolol XR25 for high blood pressure for a few years now and tried gastritis medicine like PanD for the past month, as suggested by my doctor, but it didnt work. My blood and urine tests are mostly normal except for a few things my Bilirubin is 1.99 mgdL, Vitamin D is 55 nmolL, Vitamin B12 is 177 pgmL, Apo A1 is 95 mgdL, and Apo B is 37 mgdL. Sometimes my hands shake, and I feel really lethargic all day, with heavy, labored breathing. I'm constantly aware of my stomach because of this. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm 58 kg, 5'7" tall, and 40 years old. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What might be causing them, and is there something I can do to improve my digestion?

I'm a mom to a 23-day-old baby and was diagnosed with gallbladder stones during my 8th month of pregnancy. Today I'm feeling pain in my upper abdomen again. The stone size is 9mm. Is it safe for me to take drotin tablets right now? I can't consider surgery at this stage with such a small baby
Drotin is generally safe post-pregnancy but consult your OB; manage diet and hydration, and avoid surgery if pain is mild.

I'm really concerned because I've been noticing blood in my stool for the past five days. I do drink alcohol daily, and I usually eat less food compared to others. Could this be a serious issue? What should I do?
Based on your symptoms, it is important to address the blood in your stool promptly. You may be experiencing gastrointestinal issues that need medical attention. I recommend taking a combination of Pantoprazole (brand name: Protonix) to reduce stomach acid and Sucralfate (brand name: Carafate) to help protect the lining of your stomach and intestines. Additionally, it is crucial to reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption and ensure you are eating a balanced diet to support your digestive health.
