I'm really struggling with some severe issues related to eating, swallowing, and drinking. Every time I swallow anything, it feels like it hits a mass underneath my bra line, and this causes a lot of back pain and discomfort. I had my gallbladder removed four years ago, and I also have a hemangioma growing outside my liver. I'm really worried about these symptoms and looking for some advice on what might be going on. Could this be related to my past surgeries or the hemangioma? What should I do?

To help with swallowing and discomfort, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole (20mg) once a day before breakfast to reduce stomach acid and alleviate any reflux symptoms. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (80mg) after meals to help with gas and bloating. It is important to stay hydrated, so make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried because every time I take Rekool D, it feels like the capsule gets stuck in my throat. After a while, I start to feel acid rising up into my throat, and its really uncomfortable. Some days I have a normal bowel movement, but other times its a bit mild. This has been going on since April, and I'm unsure what's happening with my body. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

Your symptoms seem to be a combination of possible acid reflux (GERD) and issues with swallowing the Rekool D medication, possibly exacerbated by IBS or digestive sensitivity. It's important to address these issues with your doctor, as they can recommend modifications in your treatment plan or explore further testing to rule out other conditions. Taking the medication with plenty of water, following up with your doctor, and potentially adjusting your diet could help manage your symptoms more effectively.

I'm having a problem where I need to go to the bathroom 2 to 3 times every morning, and it's not a complete bowel movement. This has been happening since I was born. Whenever I have to leave the house early, I take an Eldoper tablet to prevent more bathroom trips. I'm worried if taking Eldoper could seriously affect my liver. How should I handle this situation?

I'm having a real rough time with loose motion that just doesnt seem to go away. It's like my body's not digesting food properly. I tried taking O2 Tablets and Pan 40, and they seemed to help for a little bit, but now the problem is back. Every time I feel the urge, I end up with loose stools again. What should I do?
