I'm a bit concerned about my SGOT levels; they came back as 56. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it normal, or could it indicate a potential issue? Also, are there any steps I can take to try and lower it?

Question

How does gastric pain feel like?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because for the past three days it feels like something's stuck in my chest. It all started after I felt like food was coming back up from my stomach into my food pipe one night. Since then, I've been burping a lot after meals and drinks. What could be going on?

Question

I'm having this weird pain when I swallow after I vomited. It kind of feels like something is blocking my throat or maybe the passage has gotten narrower. This all started after I drank alcohol. Could there be a connection, and should I be worried about it?
