I'm a bit concerned about taking diosmin for the blood in my stool. I recently had some constipation, which I think might have caused a little bleeding. My doctor has put me on venusmin, 300mg tablets, for five days. Will diosmin have any negative effects in my situation?

View allMy dad has been feeling nauseous and vomiting all day but his sonography and CT scan came back normal. His creatinine is 1.92 and endoscopy showed acid reflux. He has a pacemaker from 2014 and had bypass surgery in 2008. Right now his cardiologist has him on three meds for acid reflux Zofer, Rantac 300, and Pantocid. Is this the right treatment or should one of Rantac or Pantocid be stopped? Could there be a better option?
In this case, nausea and reflux may be related to kidney function or meds. Zofer (ondansetron) is okay short term. Only one PPI (Pantocid) is usually needed—consult for drug interaction review.

I just found out I have gallstones from an ultrasound but haven't had any bad pain yet. Should I get my gallbladder removed before trying for a baby? If surgery is the best option, how long should I wait before getting pregnant and are there any risks to my pregnancy later on?
If you have gallstones but aren't experiencing any symptoms, you don't necessarily need to have your gallbladder removed before trying for a baby. However, it's important to discuss your situation with your doctor, especially if you're planning to conceive, as gallstones can sometimes cause complications during pregnancy

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
