I'm feeling like there's a marble stuck in my throat whenever I eat, and I can't figure out which food might be causing this. I've seen several doctors, and they say it's acid reflux or some kind of infection, but it just doesn't feel right to me. Could it be something else or linked to a specific type of food?

View allI recently got my liver function test results and I'm feeling a bit unsure. The results show my total bilirubin is 0.7 mgdl, direct bilirubin is 0.4 mgdl, and indirect bilirubin is 0.3 mgdl. I noticed that my direct bilirubin is 0.1 mgdl higher than the indirect bilirubin. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything specific I should be doing or looking into?

I've been diagnosed with multiple gallstones measuring 45 mm and get severe pain every 15 days if I eat anything other than raw fruits and vegetables. Right now I'm only eating cucumber, apple, orange, carrot and other fresh uncooked foods - no cooked meals at all. Is homeopathy effective for treating this or is surgery my only option? The pain keeps coming back and I'm worried about my restricted diet
For multiple gallstones causing frequent severe pain, surgery to remove the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is generally the most effective treatment, Homeopathy may offer some symptom relief, but it's not a proven treatment for gallstones,

I've been dealing with this regular mild chest pain that's been moving aroundsometimes it's in my upper abdomen, other times it shifts to the left or right side. I've gone through all the tests like ECG, chest X-ray, lipid profile, USG of the abdomen, thyroid checks, and even had my RBC and WBC levels looked at, and everything came out normal. The doctors said it could be gas-related and suggested PAN 40, which I've been taking, but the pain hasn't really gone away. I havent had any fever since this started happening. Could you advise on what medicine might actually help with this?
Since you have already been taking PAN 40 regularly for your mild chest pain which is suspected to be due to gas, but have not found relief, I would recommend adding another medication to help with your symptoms. You can try taking **Ranitidine (Zantac)** 150mg twice daily before meals. This medication can help further reduce the production of stomach acid and alleviate your discomfort. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided on the packaging. Additionally, continue to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your doctor if the pain persists or worsens.
