I'm 30 and have been dealing with a gastric problem for the past 6 months. My endoscopy shows acute fundal erosion, and the ultrasound points to changes in the liver, saying I have a fatty liver. I'm taking medication, but I'm not seeing any improvement. What should I do? Can you offer any suggestions or treatments?

For your gastric issue with fundal erosion, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Maalox to help with symptoms. For your fatty liver, you can try a medication like Ursodiol to improve liver function and reduce the accumulation of fat in the liver. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding alcohol to improve your liver health. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm worried about my mom. This morning, she noticed her stool was black, and I can't help but be concerned. She's been going to the bathroom a lotlike 34 timesbut there's no diarrhea or pain. Should I be worried about this? Plus, the last month has been really tough for her since she hasn't been eating or sleeping well after my uncle died. Does this sound normal, or should we be looking into what's going on with her? What could be the reason for the black stool?

I had a 5 mm polyp show up on my ultrasound 23 months ago and I'm not sure what to do next does it need surgery or can it go away on its own

A 5mm polyp found on ultrasound 23 months ago likely requires further evaluation, not necessarily surgery immediately. Whether it requires surgery or not depends on the type and location of the polyp, as well as the individual's overall health and risk factors
