I'm a bit worried because my SGPT level came back at 55 and my cholesterol is at 118. Should I be concerned about the SGPT? What steps can I take to address this?

I've been experiencing some trouble after meals, like having dosa or just a simple meal. My stomach doesn't seem to digest it well, and my belly becomes really hard and heavy. It's making it difficult for me to focus on work, and I get really restless to the point where I just want to close my eyes and sleep. Sometimes it feels like the gas from my stomach is reaching my head. Ive started taking Liv 52 tablets, but I'm not seeing any improvement. I drink 3 liters of water daily, eat chappati and veggies, and even walk about a kilometer after meals, but the problems still there. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

You're experiencing persistent digestive discomfort, bloating, and fatigue despite a relatively healthy diet and lifestyle, and considering your symptoms, it's possible that you may have underlying issues like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), slow digestion, or gut sensitivity, so consider consulting a gastroenterologist for personalized guidance and potential testing, and in the meantime, you may want to try additional strategies like eating smaller, more frequent meals, incorporating digestive-friendly foods like ginger, yogurt, and fermented vegetables, and stress-reducing techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga to help alleviate your symptoms.

I've been having this weird issue for the past two months where my stomach feels like it's beating, kind of like a heartbeat. It's freaking me out a little, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?

That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest

My mom has multiple gallstones with the biggest one at 15mm, and the doctor wants us to control her diabetes for 12 months before surgery. There's also a 43cm cyst in her right adnexa, but the doctor said removing it isn't urgent and could be too expensive to do along with the gallbladder surgery. He mentioned the cyst has a low chance of causing issues later. Should we still push to remove the cyst now or is it okay to leave it?

If the cyst is simple and asymptomatic, it’s okay to monitor it; focus on stabilizing diabetes first before combining surgeries.
