I'm experiencing a burning sensation on the right side of my abdomen, and my bowel movements aren't clear. I've also been feeling feverish, dealing with headaches, and having gas issues for about a month now. These symptoms keep coming and going. I have hypothyroidism and I'm currently taking RabletD and thyroxine. Could these be related, or is there something else I should be worried about?

You may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or acid reflux, which can be common in individuals with hypothyroidism. To help with the burning sensation in your right side abdomen, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Rabeprazole (brand name: Rabicip) along with domperidone (brand name: Domstal) for better relief. Additionally, for your gas problem, you can take simethicone (brand name: Colicaid) to help alleviate symptoms. It is also important to maintain a healthy diet, avoid spicy and acidic foods, and eat smaller meals throughout the day. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I found out I have a 13 mm gallstone but I'm not feeling any pain or discomfort right now is there any way to get rid of it without surgery

While you don't have symptoms currently with a 13mm gallstone, the best approach is usually to consult with a general surgeon. While some options exist to dissolve or remove gallstones without surgery, the decision on whether or not to intervene depends on your overall health, the size and type of gallstone, and your individual risk factors.

I noticed this morning that there was pure red blood in my stool, but I didn't experience any pain. I'm really concerned about what this might mean. Is it something serious that I should be worried about?

Seeing bright red blood in your stool without pain could indicate conditions like hemorrhoids, an anal fissure, or less commonly, a more serious issue like a rectal polyp. While it may not always be serious, its important to consult a doctor to identify the cause and rule out anything significant.
