I'm having this weird sensation like something's stuck in my throat, and sometimes I even feel pain that goes all the way down to my chest. It seems to get worse when I wake up in the morning, but when I gargle or have some green tea, it feels a bit better. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

I'm hearing a weird gurgling sound in my stomach for the past couple of days. It's been around two to four days now. Any idea what it could be or how to get rid of it? Would really appreciate some advice on what steps I should take.

My mom is 65 with multiple 9mm gallstones but her appetite is fine. She has occasional gas and mild pain, nothing severe. The doctor recommended surgery but mentioned it's high risk because of her severe sleep apnea. Can we just continue Udiliv for 2 years to dissolve the stones or is surgery really necessary?

Surgery is generally recommended for gallstones if the patient has symptoms. However, given your mom’s sleep apnea, non-surgical options like ursodeoxycholic acid (Udiliv) may help in the short term, though the stones are unlikely to fully dissolve. Consider discussing surgery timing based on her condition.
