I'm dealing with these hiccups that just don't seem to quit. It's been over 24 hours now. They pause for a bit and then come right back. Is this something I should be worried about? Might it be indicating some kind of serious issue?

I've been feeling this weird fullness in my upper abdomen for the last couple of days. At first, I kind of brushed it off thinking it would go away on its own, but now it's really starting to get on my nerves. Should I be worried or is it something that'll likely pass if I just wait it out a bit longer?

Feeling of fullness in your upper abdomen could be due to gas, indigestion, or mild gastritis. Try eating smaller meals, avoid heavy or spicy foods, and drink plenty of water. If it persists or worsens, consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues.

I keep finding mucus in my stool, and it's accompanied by stomach pain and going to the bathroom about three times a day. Plus, I've had no appetite. I've already tried metronidazole for a couple of days, taking two tablets after meals, but it hasn't seemed to help, and this problem keeps coming back. What could be going on, and what should I do to treat it?

add pre and probiotic tablet also

I'm trying to make it a habit to drink water every morning right after waking up, but I've been getting nauseous and end up vomiting the water I just drank. Do you have any ideas about why this is happening?

it might be due to gag reflex, might also be due to increased gastritis. Take one tablet. Pantop in morning the next day, it will reduce gastritis
