I'm really concerned about this constant feeling of something pulling in the middle of my stomach between my ribs, and it's paired with heavy breathing. It's been happening for about three months now. I've had tests like Troponin, Stress Echo, X-ray of my chest and lungs, and an ultrasound, and everything came back normal. I've consulted a cardiologist, pulmonologist, and radiologist, but nothing seems to help. A bit of my background: Ive been taking Tolol XR25 for high blood pressure for a few years now and tried gastritis medicine like PanD for the past month, as suggested by my doctor, but it didnt work. My blood and urine tests are mostly normal except for a few things my Bilirubin is 1.99 mgdL, Vitamin D is 55 nmolL, Vitamin B12 is 177 pgmL, Apo A1 is 95 mgdL, and Apo B is 37 mgdL. Sometimes my hands shake, and I feel really lethargic all day, with heavy, labored breathing. I'm constantly aware of my stomach because of this. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've noticed something strange happening whenever I use the toilet. After I pass stool, the water in the toilet quickly turns yellow, even though my stool itself isn't yellow. On top of that, I've been dealing with some pain in my right abdomen for the past few days. I got a sonography done, and everything looked normal according to the reports. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The changes in the toilet water color and right abdominal pain are not typical symptoms and could indicate a deeper issue related to bile production, liver function, or malabsorption. Even though your sonography was normal, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation, especially if symptoms persist. Keep track of any other associated symptoms, such as nausea, fever, changes in stool consistency, or appetite loss, and report them to your doctor.

I'm dealing with a fatty liver grade 1 situation and I'm really worried about whether it's a serious condition or not. Can you tell me what it actually means and what the diagnosis involves?

Fatty liver grade 1 is a mild form of fatty liver disease where fat accumulates in the liver cells. While its generally not considered serious at this stage, it is important to manage it through lifestyle changes like a healthy diet and regular exercise to prevent progression to more severe liver conditions.
