I've been having this weird feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for the last couple of weeks, and now I've been dealing with chest pain too. About three days ago, the chest pain got worse, but it's kinda settled down now. I saw an ENT specialist who thinks it's Acid Reflux and suggested taking Pan D capsules and Sucrafil syrup for a week. The chest pain is better, but this throat lump feeling won't go away. I even had an Echo stress test when the pain got bad, and luckily that came back okay. The ENT said I should check in with a chest doctor too. Any ideas on how I can get rid of this throat sensation and chest pain? It's really bugging me.

View allI'm getting this weird sensation like something's stuck in my throat. It's odd because I haven't eaten anything that could actually get stuck. Could this be related to GERD or might it be something different? Any ideas on what's going on?
It is possible that you are experiencing symptoms of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) which can sometimes cause a feeling of something stuck in the throat. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking over-the-counter antacids such as Tums (calcium carbonate) or Maalox (aluminum hydroxidemagnesium hydroxide) to help reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can try using H2 blockers such as Zantac (ranitidine) or proton pump inhibitors such as Prilosec (omeprazole) to further reduce acid production. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the sensation persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm really concerned about my 80-year-old mom who has gall bladder stones. She's been taking homeopathy medicines because she's not keen on getting surgery. We're planning to travel with her soon, and I'm worried about her having a sudden pain attack during the trip. Could you suggest any medicine that might help ease her pain while we're traveling?

Hey, so I've got some bilirubin levels here, and I'm a bit confused about what they mean. My Bilirubin Total is 1.95, Bilirubin Direct is 0.57, and Bilirubin Indirect is 1.38. I'm not sure if these numbers are something I should be worried about. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should talk to about this?
Consult with a Gastroenterologist or Hepatologist: This will help determine the underlying cause of your elevated bilirubin levels. Further Testing: The doctor might suggest tests such as liver function tests, ultrasound, or CT scans of the liver and biliary system to investigate the source of the issue. Lifestyle Adjustments: Depending on the cause, your doctor may recommend dietary changes, avoiding alcohol, or medication. If you experience symptoms such as yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark urine, abdominal pain, or fatigue, be sure to mention these when you consult your doctor.
