I had some vomiting last night, and my heart started racing all of a sudden. I'm also feeling like there's a lot of gas in my stomach. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Given your symptoms of vomiting, increased heart rate, and stomach gas, it's possible you're experiencing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acid reflux, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, avoid solid foods for now, opt for bland liquids like coconut water or clear broth, and consider taking an antacid or acid reducer like ranitidine or omeprazole;

I'm feeling fit and have no pain, but my pre-employment test showed my SPGT is 75 and SGOT is 40. The examiner suggested I take Udiliv 300 twice a day. Could you please tell me how long it might take to get these levels back to normal if I follow a balanced diet and abstain from alcohol? I don't drink often, so I'm wondering about my career prospects with these results. Should I consider taking Liv.52 DS instead?

SGPT and SGOT are mildly elevated and you are non alcoholic. We need to rule out other causes. A detailed Medical history including your height and weight, diet history, recent history of fever and jaundice may help us to guide you accordingly. There are ways to evaluate it. You may need to get few investigations based on history to make a diagnosis. LIV52 is an ayurvedic preparation and so I may not comment on it. About udiliv it has got some specific indications.

I've been dealing with this really weird problem where my breath smells like rotten eggs or sulfur and I just can't figure out why. I brush my teeth three times a dayafter I wake up, after lunch, and before bed. I also floss regularly and use nonalcoholic mouthwash. I used to have tonsil stones and thought that might be the reason, but even after getting my tonsils removed, the smell hasn't gone away. It's like the smell is coming from the top of my mouth or maybe even from my stomach. My diet is pretty normal, and I'm maintaining a healthy weight at 6'2'' and 180 lbs. Plus, I'm pretty active since I'm always on my feet at work. What do you think could be causing this?

It could be related to gastrointestinal issues. I recommend trying a medication like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production, which can sometimes contribute to bad breath. Additionally, you can try using simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help reduce gas in the stomach, which can also cause bad breath. Make sure to follow the recommended dosages for these medications. If the issue persists, consider consulting with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been taking Cirrosam 400 mg and Ursocol 300 mg once a day for the past three days, and my SGPT and SGOT levels are close to 150. I'm wondering if it's okay to drink alcohol while on these meds or if that could be harmful?

-It's not safe to consume alcohol while taking Cirrosam and Ursocol, as both medications are used to support liver function, and alcohol can further strain the liver. It's best to avoid alcohol during this treatment to prevent potential liver damage. Alwa
