I'm having these gas issues and it's causing some chest pain, especially on the left side of my chest. I've been taking medicine for it, but still, the pain comes and goes, like when I bend or sometimes when I take a deep breath. Could all of this be just because of gas?

View allI'm dealing with GERD issues and sometimes it feels like my breath gets stuck. To keep an eye on things, I've started using a pulse oximeter daily to check my oxygen level. But here's the thing, I'm getting some really weird readings. It starts at 98 or 99, but then after 20 to 30 seconds, it suddenly drops to numbers like 79, 89, or even 60, before going back up to 98 or 94. These abnormal readings only last for about 3 to 4 seconds. Other than this sensation like somethings stuck, I'm generally active and dont have other major issues. Should I be concerned about these fluctuating numbers, or is this normal with a pulse oximeter? What's going on?
Spirometry and pulmonary function tests is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with mucus in my stool for the past six months, and it's getting worse. Sometimes it clears up, but other times it gets quite excessive. I'm also constantly experiencing stomach pain. I've already had a blood test, and everything came back normal. I'm really worried and would love some advice on what I should do next. What's going on with me?
The symptoms you are experiencing, such as mucus in stool and stomach pain, could be indicative of a gastrointestinal issue. One possible cause for these symptoms is inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). I recommend you to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can try taking a probiotic supplement like "Align" once daily to help support your gut health. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter antispasmodic medication like "Buscopan" as needed for stomach pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and follow a healthy, balanced diet rich in fiber.
