I'm dealing with some health issues and I was hoping you could help me out. I've been experiencing acid reflux, dizziness, and headaches, along with some pain in both the left and right sides of my bladder. I also get heartburn and occasionally my right shoulder hurts. What kind of tests should I consider to figure out what's going on?

I have multiple gallstones, with the largest being 12mm and others around 8-9mm. I'm also diabetic, and my HIDA scan showed 95% gallbladder function. Should I consider surgery for gallstones? I'm worried about potential future issues like chronic diarrhea, fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies, liver problems, or increased gas and acidity after gallbladder removal.
Given your multiple gallstones, including one 12mm stone, and your diabetes, surgery (cholecystectomy) is a strong consideration for addressing the gallstones. While a HIDA scan showing 95% gallbladder function indicates relatively good function, larger stones, especially in a diabetic patient, increase the risk of complications and may outweigh the benefits of maintaining the gallbladder

I've been dealing with hemorrhoids for about a month now, and it's been really painful. On top of that, I've had pinworms for around 10 years. It seriously feels like I'm being stabbed with a knife in my anus. What can I do to ease this pain and get some relief?
-It sounds like you're in a lot of pain from your hemorrhoids. It's important to consult a doctor for proper treatment, as both the hemorrhoids and pinworms can cause discomfort that requires specific care.
