I have a 1.08 cm gallbladder stone and a 0.78 cm liver stone, plus my left kidney is 9.38 cm and right kidney is 9.87 cm. Doctors are recommending surgery but I really don't want to go through with it. Are there any other options or treatments I can try instead?

View allI had a big beer earlier and then took Liv 52 by mistake, and now I'm planning to go to sleep. I'm wondering if that's okay or if there's any issue with having done that. I didn't really think about the beer when I took the Liv 52. Do you think there's any problem with that, or is it fine?

I'm a 35-year-old woman who's been dealing with lax LES since 2019. The first signs were a persistent cough, and after an endoscopy, they diagnosed me with this condition. I've been sleeping on an elevated bed or wedge pillow since then, but I'm still struggling with the symptoms. It feels like a nightmare. Is there any real treatment for this? Right now, I'm dealing with constant heartburn, a sour taste in my mouth, a heavy chest, and some breathing issues. It's like I'm experiencing these symptoms non-stop. What can I do?
Ulgel od x 3 weeks
