I'm having this weird issue where my burp just gets stuck halfway, and I've been burping a lot lately. On top of that, I've got this burning feeling in my chest, and my nose feels super dry but blocked at the same time. It's really frustrating. I'm also experiencing dizziness and sometimes even a burning sensation in my feet. All of these symptoms started after I had COVID in 2021. I've had allergic rhinitis for over 5 years, but I've never dealt with GERD before. My upper endoscopy and colonoscopy came back normal, as did my ECG and echo. I'm really starting to feel desperate and kind of pathetic. Do you have any ideas on what could be going on with me?

View allI've been dealing with some digestive changes since my laparoscopic cholecystectomy a month ago. Now, every morning I'm usually going to the bathroom twice or even three times. What I find odd is that the first stool looks normal, but after I eat, the second one that comes out quickly, like within 15 or 20 minutes, is whitish. I recently got my liver profile checked, and my bilirubin is a bit high at 1.1 because of higher indirect bilirubin, and my ALT is 66. Although my appetite is good and digestion seems okay, I take Enzar Forte once at night after eating. I also have been taking Pan D in the morning on an empty stomach since being diagnosed with chronic gastritis from an endoscopy. Should I be worried about these symptoms? Is it something serious, or maybe related to my recent surgery?
-Your symptoms might be related to bile flow changes after gallbladder removal, which can sometimes cause variations in stool color and frequency. The slightly elevated bilirubin and ALT could warrant monitoring but don't seem alarming with your current d

In my recent liver function test, my SGPT levels are at 51, while everything else is in the normal range. Should I be concerned about the SGPT being at 51? Also, are there any recommendations on what I can do or take to improve this?

I'm experiencing some issues and would appreciate your guidance. Since yesterday, I've been having loose motions and sour burps. Yesterday was toughI had a lot of stomach pain and just slept through most of the day, but the symptoms didn't seem to persist into the evening. However, today, as soon as I woke up, the loose motions started again with those same sour burps. Is this something serious or should I be worried enough to make a doctor's appointment? What could be causing these symptoms?
Given your situation, it's essential to consider the risks and benefits of immediate versus delayed surgery. *Risks of Delayed Surgery* 1. *Increased risk of complications*: A 17 mm stone is considered large, and delaying surgery may lead to complications, such as: - Gallstone pancreatitis - Cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder) - Jaundice 2. *Potential for stone growth*: The stone may continue to grow, making it more challenging to remove and increasing the risk of complications. 3. *Risk of gallbladder cancer*: Although rare, a large stone like yours may increase the risk of gallbladder cancer. *Benefits of Immediate Surgery* 1. *Reduced risk of complications*: Removing the stone and gallbladder now can prevent potential complications. 2. *Less risk of stone growth*: Removing the stone now will prevent it from growing larger and causing more problems. 3. *Improved quality of life*: Surgery can alleviate anxiety and concerns about potential complications. *Recommendation* Considering your age and the size of the stone, it's recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible. The risks of delayed surgery outweigh the benefits of waiting.
