I started taking Metrogyl 400 for a bad stomach yesterday, took it twice, and now I'm feeling better. Do I still need to keep taking it, or is it okay to stop? Will it cause any issues if I don't continue? I'm just wondering if its important to finish the whole course even if I'm feeling fine now.

-It's important to complete the full course of Metrogyl to ensure the infection is fully treated. Even if you're feeling better, stopping early can lead to a relapse or resistance. If you're unsure, it's best to consult your doctor for advice.

View allI'm curious about something that keeps coming up in my ultrasound scans. They always mention that the pancreas is obscured by bowel gas. Is it normal to have gas around the pancreas, or should I be concerned about this? Can gas be around other organs too? I'm just trying to understand if there's anything I should be worried about.
The phrase "pancreas obscured by bowel gas" refers to the fact that the pancreas is not clearly visible on an ultrasound because gas in the bowel is blocking the view. This is a common occurrence and not necessarily abnormal

I've been dealing with GERD for 21 years and take pantoprazole DSR every morning. Even after lifestyle changes, I still get reflux. Would surgery be a permanent solution for this or are there other options I should consider?
While surgery, like Nissen fundoplication, can significantly improve or even eliminate GERD symptoms, it's not a guaranteed permanent cure and is typically considered a last resort after other treatments have failed. Other options, including medication adjustments, additional testing, and even exploring alternative therapies, should be considered before surgery.
