I'm really concerned about my 80-year-old mom who has gall bladder stones. She's been taking homeopathy medicines because she's not keen on getting surgery. We're planning to travel with her soon, and I'm worried about her having a sudden pain attack during the trip. Could you suggest any medicine that might help ease her pain while we're traveling?

I've been dealing with this feeling for about 8 months now. It's like there's mucus stuck in my throat, almost like nasal mucus. A while back, about 6 months ago, I had a GI infection from H. pylori but got treatment and I'm not dealing with any infection anymore. However, I still frequently get gastrointestinal disturbances. The mucus stuck feeling is really bothering me. Any idea what might be causing this or how I can get rid of it?

use mucolytics like montlucast and consult your doctor foe further treatment
