I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this acid reflux ever since I quit smoking about a month ago. Its become quite uncomfortable, and sometimes I even have trouble breathing, which gets worse when I try to exercise. Im not sure if there's any medication I could take to ease these symptoms, or if it's important that I visit a hospital right now. Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm having this really sharp, constant pain in my upper left abdomen and it's getting worse when I cough or sneeze. Even small movements sometimes set it off. About three weeks ago, I had a bad cough with congestion, fever, headache, and body pain, and I was on antibiotics and other meds for ten days. Now the fever and headaches are gone, but Im still dealing with a mild wet cough. This abdominal pain is really worrying me because it seems to be increasing every day. Ive attached my USG and X-ray reports too. Do you think this could be related to my past illness, or is it something else?

I recently had my bilirubin levels checked, and I'm a bit worried because my total bilirubin is at 2.5. My direct bilirubin seems fine, but it's my indirect bilirubin that's high at 2.2. Everything else like ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin, globulin, and the AG ratio is normal. I had jaundice about four months ago, and I'm wondering if this could be related. What could be causing this high indirect bilirubin, and is there anything I can do to bring it down? Would really appreciate some advice.

I noticed blood in my vomit again yesterday, and it's really got me worried. I work night shifts and tend to smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol almost every day. This last time it happened early in the morning after a night shift party. Could my lifestyle be the reason behind this? What should I do about it?
