I'm 19 years old and recently noticed something strange - my stomach moves in a way that feels like a heartbeat. I'm not sure if it's something that has always been there, but I've only noticed it in the last couple of months. Could this be something normal or should I be worried about it?

I just accidentally ate some sweet food that I think is infected with fungus. I'm really worried about what might happen next. Can you tell me what I should do now? Will it cause any serious issues?

I'm feeling uneasy because after having an endoscopy, I started having pain in my windpipe when I swallow food. On top of that, I sometimes experience mild to moderate stomach pain, usually when my stomach's empty like in the mornings. I never had any issues like this before the endoscopy, and now I'm really worried that there might have been a perforation in my stomach when they took a tissue sample, especially since I felt pain in my stomach during the procedure. Could this be serious? What should I do?

No i can't be a perforation. Take some anti gastric medication for one week and monitor for symptoms

I'm a bit confused about how to take Liv 52 tablets. Should I be having them before eating or after meals? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

The recommended dosage of Liv 52 is 2-3 tablets, 2-3 times a day, and it's best taken after food to minimize potential stomach upset
