I'm 24 years old and I've been having issues with burping and vertigo. I also seem to have trouble digesting things like coconut milk. Could these be related, and what might be causing these symptoms?

I have multiple gallstones with a large one measuring 10-12 mm but no pain so far just occasional indigestion, acidity, and gas issues. Should I consider surgery now or wait? Could homeopathy be an option or is that not advisable?

It's best to consult with a surgeon and/or your general practitioner to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. While you're currently asymptomatic, a large gallstone can increase the risk of complications like blockages or infections, potentially requiring surgery. Homeopathy is not a scientifically proven treatment for gallstones and may not be effective, according to medical professionals

I've been really worried because I used to have this habit of eating slate pencils when I was a teenager, like from age 15 to 17. I gave it up for a while, but just recently, I found myself eating about two boxes this year. Lately, I've noticed that my bowel movements have been off, going to the toilet three times a day, and I'm wondering if eating those pencils back then or even now could be the cause. Does the slate pencil get expelled naturally, or is there something more serious going on? Should I be considering some kind of treatment or operation to get it out of my system? Who should I talk to for help with this? Any advice would be really appreciated!
