I'm really concerned about some symptoms I've been experiencing lately. I've been feeling really fatigued, super sleepy, and I've had a few fevers now and then. I've also noticed some weight loss and hair loss, and I've been getting headaches. My ultrasound report says there's decreased echotexture of my liver, which they mentioned could be hepatitis. Could these symptoms all be related, and should I be worried about the possibility of hepatitis? What steps should I take next?

Based on your symptoms of fatigue, sleepiness, occasional fever, weight loss, hair loss, and headache, along with the ultrasound report showing decreased echotexture of the liver suggestive of hepatitis, this points to possible liver inflammation. I recommend further blood tests and a detailed evaluation to confirm the cause and guide treatment effectively.

View allI'm really struggling with having frequent bowel movements, like 4 to 5 times a day, especially after eating. I used to have heartburn too, but that got better with some meds. Now, it's all about this diarrhea issue. Every time I eat, I have to rush to the washroom several times, and it's really impacting my daily life. I'm embarrassed around friends, can't travel, and find it hard to eat properly. It's unpredictable, and as soon as I feel the urge, I have to go. I recently had some tests done at AIG, and everything seemed okay except for a vitamin D deficiency of 8.6 ngml. Ive been to so many doctors, but I still can't find a solution, and it's really stressing me out. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

I've had two endoscopies and my doctor diagnosed me with GERD. They prescribed some tablets, but I'm still struggling with symptoms like constant upper stomach discomfort, feeling like my stomach is always full, and hardly ever burping even after eating. Talking makes me tired, and I can't relax even when taking deep breaths my chest expands, but my stomach muscles stay tense. Sometimes my throat feels tight too. I read about fundoplication surgery for GERD do I really need it, or can tablets still help? I'm really worried about this.
It's understandable to be worried when your GERD symptoms persist despite medication. Fundoplication surgery, which involves wrapping the upper part of the stomach around the lower esophagus, can be an effective treatment option for persistent GERD symptoms. However, it's not always the first approach, and medication may still be sufficient for some. A thorough discussion with your doctor is crucial to determine the best course of action for your individual situation.

I've been feeling this weird globus sensation and tightness in my throat for a while now, but it doesn't hurt or make it hard to swallow. I got an endoscopy done, and there was only some erosion in the stomach's fundus; everything else looked normal. I do have mild acidity, but no heartburn or difficulty swallowing. There's nothing unusual in my throat or lymph nodes either. My mom passed away from anaplastic carcinoma of the thyroid, and that seriously worries me. What could be causing this discomfort in my throat?
