I'm dealing with G6PD and my stomach's been in pain since last week. I'm thinking about taking Nexium control, but I'm not sure if it's safe for me. Could this help with the pain, or should I be cautious because of my condition?

View allI'm feeling pretty nervous lately, and I'm not sure why. About a week ago, I went to a gastro specialist because I was really bloated. I noticed the bloating happens whenever I have dairy products, which is still an issue now. I've attached my blood test results, and they show that my LDL and NON-HDL levels are high. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take?
From your blood test results showing high LDL and NON HDL levels, along with your symptoms of bloating and nervousness, it is important to address your cholesterol levels and digestive issues. To lower your LDL and NON HDL levels, I recommend starting a medication called Atorvastatin. Additionally, since you are experiencing bloating with dairy products, you can try taking a lactase enzyme supplement like Lactaid before consuming dairy to help with digestion. It is also advisable to follow a low-cholesterol diet and engage in regular physical activity to improve your overall health. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your cholesterol levels.

I've been a bit worried since I recently had some blood work done. My total bilirubin was 1.77, so I took Livopill for 10 days, and my repeated test showed total bilirubin at 1.62, with DB at 0.63 and IDB at 0.99. The other results were total protein 7.6, serum albumin 4.9, globulin 2.7, AG ratio 1.8, SGOT 24, SGPT 25, alkaline phosphatase 92, GGTP 12, and my HBsAg was 0.24. Now, I've been told to take Ensules Plus for a month, but I feel this discomfort or pain just below my right rib. Should I be thinking about taking any other medication or is the pain something to worry about? Feeling a bit unsure about all this.
Your liver function tests show mild bilirubin elevation and normal liver enzymes, and the HbsAg result suggests you're not infected with hepatitis B; considering your symptoms and test results, consult your doctor about adding a liver protective supplement like silymarin or ursodeoxycholic acid to Ensules Plus, and for the rib pain, consider adding an antacid or acid reducer like omeprazole or ranitidine to alleviate discomfort, but only under medical guidance.

My dad was just diagnosed with gall bladder stones and we're unsure if he needs surgery or if medication would work he's also having pain when he pees. What's the best way to handle this?
The first step is to address the pain during urination, which could indicate a urinary tract infection or other urinary problem. Then, discuss with a doctor the best course of action for the gall bladder stones, which could involve medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery
