I'm really worried about my wife. She's been dealing with this pain on the right side of her chest for a couple of weeks now. We had an ultrasound and X-ray done, and the doctor mentioned something about liver enlargement and fluid in her lower lungs. The reports also showed WBC lymphocytes at 20 and neutrophils at 76, plus there's an infection in her urine. We've tried different medications, but her pain hasn't gotten much better. What should we do for treatment? Any advice would be really appreciated.

its better to take antibiotics

I'm dealing with stomach issues a lot lately. It's been happening a couple of times just in this past week, and I really don't feel like eating anything. Last night was pretty rough with vomiting, and I've had these intense headaches all day. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis, which is inflammation of the stomach lining. To help with your symptoms, you can take over-the-counter antacids like Maalox or Mylanta to help reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can try taking Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to further reduce stomach acid production. It's also important to avoid spicy, acidic, and fatty foods that can irritate the stomach. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with gallstones and came across a couple of alternative treatments extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy ESWL and methyl tertiary butyl ether MTBE. Are these actually effective compared to gallbladder surgery? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife and wanted to know if these options are safe or worth considering.

While extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) are sometimes considered for gallstones, gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the preferred and most effective treatment for symptomatic gallstones. ESWL and MTBE have limited use and are often not recommended for long-term management due to the high likelihood of stone recurrence.
