Question

I'm feeling quite worried about a few things. I recently had a general check-up, and they found my gall bladder to be moderately distended but without any calculi or wall thickening. What concerns me is my bloating, indigestion, and irregular bowel movements. The ultrasound mentioned fatty liver grade 1 too, and that has me even more concerned. I've also been experiencing daily stomach cramps, along with back and leg cramps. I've tried a lot of tablets for these issues and even had a colonoscopy and endoscopy done - both were normal. All other tests like my CBC, LFT, and RFT came back normal too. Can you help me understand what might be going on?

A moderately distended gallbladder without calculi or wall thickening is often a benign finding, but given your symptoms of bloating, indigestion, stomach cramps, back pains, and leg cramps, it's understandable that you're concerned; the fatty liver grade 1 is a common condition, often related to diet and lifestyle; consider discussing the following with your doctor: dietary changes to manage fatty liver, potential gallbladder function tests (e.g., HIDA scan), and further evaluation of your symptoms to rule out other underlying conditions.

Question

Ive been noticing this weird sensation, like something's moving inside my stomach, especially when I sleep on it. It doesn't hurt, but it feels unusual. Could it possibly be some type of worm or parasite? Any insights would be really helpful.

Question

I'm really worried because I've been taking dulcoflex tablets every night, and now it feels like I'm reliant on them. It all started back when I was 18 and dealing with constipation issues. I was also over 100 kg, but then I managed to get down to 75 and have kept it there. I just don't want this to turn into a lifelong dependency. How do I break this habit, and what should I be doing instead for the constipation? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I've been having a problem where I need to go to the washroom soon after I eat breakfast or lunch, usually within about 20 minutes. It's becoming a big issue for me, and I'm just not sure what to do about it. Could you suggest any solutions or advice on what might be causing this?
