I've been vomiting blood for the last two days and it's really got me worried. I've been dealing with ulcerative colitis for about six years now, and I'm not sure if it's related. Could these two things be connected? What should I do?

Question

I'm really worried because my sister has been craving and eating slate pencils for about 6 months now. I'm concerned about whether this could harm her health. Is there a way we can help her reduce these cravings? How can we check if there's already been any damage? Would love to get some guidance on this.

Question

I've been struggling with a weird issue for the past couple of months and could use some advice on what's going on. After every meal, I feel this strong urge to go to the bathroom, and while the stool seems normal, it still concerns me. To make things more confusing, sometimes after I clean up, that urge comes back, but nothing happens. I'm really getting worried about what could be causing this. Can you shed any light on what might be happening?

Question

I've been dealing with this issue where whenever I eat, it feels like the food gets stuck between my chest and upper stomach, even though I don't have any acidity or pain. My pulmonologist had me on some meds like rablet d and ab flo, and while they helped a bit, they didn't really fix the problem. My chest X-ray came back normal, so that's good, but I'm pretty confused about what's going on. Just spoke to a friend who's a cardiologist and he thinks it's something to do with motility and stomach stuff, so he recommended a course of ganaton total for five days. I started that today, but I'm still feeling like I need to take a deep breath every few minutes. I've also been taking steam at night. Do you think this new medication will help clear up whatever's going on? I'm a bit anxious about what's causing this and would love some advice.
