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?

Is LINX surgery available in India and how does it compare to other treatments for faster recovery? I've heard it can be removed if complications arise but I'm not sure about success rates or where to find good specialists for this procedure

Yes, LINX surgery is available in India, according to Dr. Jasmeet Singh Ahluwalia and other surgeons like Dr. Tulip Obese. It's a minimally invasive procedure to treat GERD, offering potential for faster recovery compared to more extensive surgeries like Nissen fundoplication, says VIP Surg and endoscopic treatments, according to www.atulpeters.com and IndiCure Health Tours. The LINX device can be removed if complications arise, but success rates and long-term outcomes are generally good.

I've been really worried because I used to have this habit of eating slate pencils when I was a teenager, like from age 15 to 17. I gave it up for a while, but just recently, I found myself eating about two boxes this year. Lately, I've noticed that my bowel movements have been off, going to the toilet three times a day, and I'm wondering if eating those pencils back then or even now could be the cause. Does the slate pencil get expelled naturally, or is there something more serious going on? Should I be considering some kind of treatment or operation to get it out of my system? Who should I talk to for help with this? Any advice would be really appreciated!
