I've been having this chest discomfort that's mostly in the center, but sometimes it's a bit on the left side too. Plus, there's this back pain right in the middle of my back. Last year I talked to a gastroenterologist and had an endoscopy and a chest X-ray. They didn't spot anything except a gastric problem. But here I am, a year later, feeling the same kind of discomfort again. What could be going on? Should I be worried, or is this something common that happens with gastric issues?

View allI'm a bit concerned about my recent blood test results. My SGPT is 61 and gamma GT is 46, while everything else seems to be normal. For example, my SGOT is 27, ALP is 107, LDH serum is 282, bilirubin is 0.4, total serum protein is 7.6, albumin is 4.3, and globulin is 3.30. Should I be worried about the elevated SGPT and gamma GT? What could this mean for my liver health?

My doctor switched me from lactifiber to lactihep plus for my hard stools. I'm supposed to take 10ml, but I'm not sure how much water I should mix it with. Could you guide me on this?
You can mix 10 ml of Lactihep Plus in about half a glass of water (around 100-150 ml) and drink it. Follow it up with plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and help with stool softening.

I've been monitoring my stool for the past week, and after dealing with constipation for about three days, I noticed these small round red spots on my stool. They disappeared for a bit, but now they're back, although not in large numbers. It's a little freaky for me. Last month, I had a high blood pressure issue, but it's controlled now with homeopathic meds. Could you help me understand what might be going on?
The presence of red spots in your stool could be due to various reasons, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or gastrointestinal bleeding. Since you have a history of high blood pressure and are currently taking Homeopathic medicines, it is important to be cautious with any additional medications. I recommend you take a stool test to check for any signs of blood in the stool. In the meantime, you can consider taking a stool softener like Docusate Sodium to help with constipation and reduce straining during bowel movements. Additionally, increasing your fiber intake and staying hydrated can also help improve your bowel movements.
