I've been dealing with some gastric acidity for the past month, and I'm on medication, including 1 monticop tablet daily, 2 deriphyllin 300 tablets, and 3 rbson D capsules. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do to alleviate this issue or if a change in the medication might be necessary? Do you think these meds are contributing to my stomach problems, or is it something else I should be looking into?

I'm really confused about my recent health check-up results. My SGPT is 155 and SGOT is 180, but I'm not a drinker, so I'm puzzled about what might be causing this. All my hepatitis virus tests came back negative. An ultrasound discovered a grade 2 fatty liver, and my fibroscan is showing 9.5. I don't have any symptoms, just found out through a regular check-up. Could you give me some advice or suggest a treatment plan for this?

Based on your test results showing elevated liver enzymes and the presence of grade 2 fatty liver, it is important to address the underlying cause and manage your condition. Since hepatitis virus tests are negative, the elevation in liver enzymes may be due to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). I recommend starting treatment with Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) at a dosage of 10-15 mgkgday. This medication can help improve liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. In addition, lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are crucial in managing NAFLD. It is also important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your liver function tests and adjust treatment as needed.

Found a gallstone about 1.1 cm and my doctor recommends surgery. Can I try natural remedies to flush it out instead? What could happen if I don't get the surgery?

1.1 cm gallstones rarely flush out naturally. If symptomatic, surgery is recommended. Delay can lead to complications like pancreatitis.

I'm dealing with a bit of a stomach issue. I usually need to go to the bathroom 2 or 3 times a day, but if I can't go in the afternoon, I end up feeling gassy and my stomach feels hot by the evening. How can I make sure my stomach stays clear so I don't have these problems anymore?
