I've been feeling something really weird on the left side, just below my ribs for the past three months. It's like a mix of pain, ticklish sensations, and bubbling. At one point, I thought maybe I'd torn a muscle, so I rushed to emergency. They did an ECG, checked my blood pressure, and even took an X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm on some meds that the doctor gave me from the GD Diabetes Centre like Voveran SR, Pan D, and Trinerve 75. But still, when I touch the area, it hurts a bit, and when I don't, it feels ticklish and painful at the same time. Any idea what's going on or if I should be concerned?

View allMy mom is 65 with multiple 9mm gallstones but her appetite is fine. She has occasional gas and mild pain, nothing severe. The doctor recommended surgery but mentioned it's high risk because of her severe sleep apnea. Can we just continue Udiliv for 2 years to dissolve the stones or is surgery really necessary?
Surgery is generally recommended for gallstones if the patient has symptoms. However, given your mom’s sleep apnea, non-surgical options like ursodeoxycholic acid (Udiliv) may help in the short term, though the stones are unlikely to fully dissolve. Consider discussing surgery timing based on her condition.

I'm 30 and have been dealing with a gastric problem for the past 6 months. My endoscopy shows acute fundal erosion, and the ultrasound points to changes in the liver, saying I have a fatty liver. I'm taking medication, but I'm not seeing any improvement. What should I do? Can you offer any suggestions or treatments?
For your gastric issue with fundal erosion, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Maalox to help with symptoms. For your fatty liver, you can try a medication like Ursodiol to improve liver function and reduce the accumulation of fat in the liver. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding alcohol to improve your liver health. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with stomach problems for the last two months, like cramps, abdominal pain, weird motions, mild fever, red eyes, and headaches. I first saw one gastro doctor who thought it was an infection and gave me some medications like Zifi, Satrogyl, and Nizonide. He wanted me to do a bunch of tests like colonoscopy, endoscopy, biopsy, CT scans, and blood tests. I went to another senior gastro in Noida, and he said it's IBS and no need for all those tests. But then after his 10-day course, the issues came back, and he also blamed another infection. Now, it's been about 20 days since my stomach has been better, and I'm taking Menoctyl, Enzar Forte, and Vizylac. What's really bothering me is that I've lost 8-9 kg of weight despite eating enough lately, and my weight isn't going up. Is this normal? Should I stick with the same gastro since I'm finally feeling some relief? The weight loss is freaking me out a bit.
