I'm a bit concerned about my recent blood test results. My SGOT and SGPT levels are 21.3 and 9.20, which are in the normal range, but the ratio is 2.3. Is this something I should worry about? Everything else in the liver function test looks normal. Could you provide some insight into what this might mean?

I've been dealing with this gas trouble in my chest for a while now, and it just doesn't seem to go away. Every time I breathe in, I feel this pain. What should I do about it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of gas trouble causing chest pain. I recommend taking an antacid medication such as Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets. You can take 2 tablets as needed for relief of gas and chest pain. Additionally, simethicone-based medications like Gas-X can also help relieve gas symptoms. Make sure to avoid foods that can worsen gas such as beans, cabbage, and carbonated drinks. If the symptoms persist, consult with a doctor for further evaluation.
