I'm a bit worried because during a routine check-up, the real-time pelvis ultrasound showed mild splenomegaly. Could you tell me what steps I should take to manage this? Should I be doing anything specific, like taking certain precautions or medications? I'm looking for a bit of guidance here.

View allI'm having this awful pain in my upper abdomen, right chest, and back whenever I breathe or move, and I think it might be due to gastric issues. Do you have any advice or remedies that could help with this?
For gastric-related pain in the upper abdomen, right chest, and back, exacerbated by breathing or movement, consider the following remedies: avoid trigger foods, eat smaller, frequent meals, and adopt a low-fat diet; try over-the-counter antacids, acid reducers, or proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole; practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing, yoga, or meditation to reduce stress;

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

I'm really worried because I've been having pain in my left chest every day for the past 10 months. I've done about 20 ECGs, a 2D echo, and a TMT test a month ago, all of which came back normal. The high sensitivity troponin test was normal, and so were my chest X-ray, random blood sugar, and CBC tests. I've been to the cardiologist three times, and he keeps saying it's not a heart issue, but the pain in my left chest, left hand, and upper left back is still there. I'm scared it might be a heart attack. What other tests should I consider, and which type of doctor should I see next?
Since the cardiac evaluations have come back normal and your cardiologist has ruled out any heart-related issues, the persistent left chest pain could be due to musculoskeletal problems or other non-cardiac causes. I would recommend consulting a Rheumatologist to evaluate for conditions such as costochondritis or fibromyalgia. Additionally, you may consider getting a CT scan or MRI of the chest to further investigate any potential structural issues. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for symptomatic relief.
