I've had this really stubborn cough for about 8 months now and it's sometimes so bad that I end up vomiting. I went to see a doctor and got tested for TB, but that came back negative. My X-ray did show some lower lobe subsegmental pulmonary consolidation. I was on medication for a while, and the cough got better, but as soon as I stopped, it came back. I saw another doctor who suggested it might be a gastric issue and told me to avoid spicy foods and fizzy drinks. But the cough is still here, and it's worse at night, sometimes leading to vomiting. I have to admit, Im still eating spicy foods occasionally, and I'm wondering if that's making it worse. What should I do next?

View allI've got 5.3mm gallstones but no major pain, just occasional back discomfort do I really need surgery or are there meds that can dissolve them
Having 5.3mm gallstones and no major pain is common, and in most cases, these gallstones don't require treatment. These are often called "silent stones" because they don't interfere with the gallbladder's function or cause any noticeable symptoms. However, it's important to be aware of potential future issues and to consult with a doctor to discuss your specific situation.

I've been having this issue where I feel a strong urge to pass stool, but once I'm actually on the toilet, it just doesn't fully evacuate. It's like I can go a little, but then something seems to block it. It ends up happening in bits over the day, like 3 or 4 times. Is this something I should be worried about, like why can't I just get it all out in one go?

I'm a bit puzzled and worried here. My latest reports show that everything's normal, but my SGPT is at 79 and SGOT is 42. The ultrasound mentions a grade 1 fatty liver, which is confusing because all my friends with fatty liver haven't had any risen liver enzymes like I do. Why is this happening to me?
R U A ALCOHOLIC? IF SO, LIVER ENZYMES ARE RAISED DUE TO THAT. FATTY LIVER IS ALSO DUE TO THAT? WHY YOUR FRIENDS DON'T HAVE INCREASED LIVER ENZYMES THAT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SAY? ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE FATTY LIVER ALSO?? IT'S QUERY ABOUT U N YOU HAVE MENTIONED ALL INFORMATION ABOUT U SO DON'T WORRY. DIET CONTROL N WALKING IS CHANGED THE LIVER ENZYMES. SGPT IS RAISED SGOT IS NOT SO MUCH ENLARGED. SO IF U R ALCOHOLIC TRY TO MININIMISE IT TO 60 ML. LOW FAT, LEAST OIL,NO FRIED JUNK FOOD OR FOOD FROM OUTSIDE. BRICK WALKING AT LEAST FOR 30 MINUTES.
