I'm experiencing this pain on the left side of my chest, right around the heart area, and I'm not sure if it's something heart-related. It comes with shortness of breath, a lot of burping, and I've been dealing with some acidity and gastric issues as well. Do you think this is more about my heart or my stomach acting up? Which kind of doctor should I talk to about this?

I'm dealing with gallstones and some gastric issues, and I've been taking Ursocol 300mg twice a day. I'm wondering if there might be any side effects if I continue this for an extended period, like 6 months to a year. Any insights?

I'm a bit confused about my recent ultrasound results. Initially, they found an isoechoic lesion attached to the gallbladder, saying something about the anterior wall being 4.3mm by 2.2mm. Now, after another ultrasound, it's showing gallbladder polyps at 7.5mm. I'm not sure what this really means for my health or what kind of treatment I should be considering. Could you help clarify and advise on what steps I should take next?

An isoechoic lesion attached to the gallbladder wall could be a gallbladder polyp, which is a tissue growth that extends from the gallbladder's mucous lining.If a gallbladder polyp increases in size by 2 mm or more, or reaches 10 mm in diameter, surgical removal of the gallbladder, called cholecystectomy, may be recommended. As in this case size increases so surgery should be recommended

My sister has been dealing with acid reflux for quite some time, and the doctor asked us to get her an endoscopy. Since yesterday, shes had a fever, lost her appetite, and is experiencing headaches. Could these symptoms be related to her acid reflux?

loss of appetite is related to gastritis ,bloating abdomen and fullness in the stomach are the symptoms of gastritis
