I'm having this sensation where my chest feels really tight, like there's gas trapped in there, especially when I'm lying down. Sometimes, I wake up suddenly with this kind of unsettling sensation shooting up to my brain, and there's this bitter taste in my mouth. It's starting to worry me a bit, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help?

I've been having this weird issue for the past two months where my stomach feels like it's beating, kind of like a heartbeat. It's freaking me out a little, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?

That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest

I'm 50 and used to be addicted to alcohol, but I quit completely a year ago. For the past three months, I've been dealing with loose motions about 4 to 5 times a day. I saw a doctor and did all sorts of tests like ultrasound, blood, and stool tests. Everything came back normal no kidney issues, no diabetes, just a minor fatty liver. My hemoglobin levels are low. Could low hemoglobin be the reason for these loose motions? Also, I've been on high blood pressure medications for 25 years. I'm not sure what to do next or if there are other tests I should consider. Any advice?

Its unlikely that low hemoglobin alone is causing your loose motions, but it could contribute to overall weakness. Since you have a history of high blood pressure and fatty liver, its important to follow up with your doctor for further tests, like checking for gastrointestinal issues or infections, and possibly adjusting your medication. Staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet will also help.

I'm a mom to a 23-day-old baby and was diagnosed with gallbladder stones during my 8th month of pregnancy. Today I'm feeling pain in my upper abdomen again. The stone size is 9mm. Is it safe for me to take drotin tablets right now? I can't consider surgery at this stage with such a small baby

Drotin is generally safe post-pregnancy but consult your OB; manage diet and hydration, and avoid surgery if pain is mild.
