I'm really struggling with this awful stomach pain and constant bloating. I was taking Digene and Rablet, and it worked for a bit, but then it just stopped being effective. Now I'm on Rablet IT and Asthymin, but there's still no relief. What's weird is that when I'm asleep, I don't have gas issues, but as soon as I wake up, it all starts again, and my whole stomach hurts. Drinking cold milk seems to help temporarily, but nothing else seems to work. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should try?

I'm just wondering if I should continue taking the SIBOFix tablets since Ive already finished a 3-day course? I noticed that there are some available for another 3 days. Also, I'm planning to go to my native place for 3 days soon. Could you let me know if an appointment can be scheduled on the morning of the 17th before I leave?

I was just diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and I'm a bit worried - can this be managed with meds or will I need surgery? I'm not sure how serious it is and what the best treatment options are

A hiatal hernia is a condition where a part of the stomach pushes up into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm. While many people with hiatal hernias don't experience symptoms and don't need treatment, others may experience symptoms like heartburn or acid reflux that can be managed with lifestyle changes and medications. In some cases, especially with large or symptomatic hernias, surgery may be needed to repair the hernia

I've been dealing with chest pains for the past year and just recently, theyve gotten really intense. I've had all sorts of tests done ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, and blood work like hscrp and cholesterol and everything comes back normal or borderline. Heres the thing, when I take gas tablets, I feel a lot better, but I can't shake off this anxious feeling, and I keep thinking negatively. Ive seen about ten cardiologists, and they all say my heart is fine, but the anxiety just wont go away. Is this heart pain or something like GERD? My heart races when I hear bad news, and it's making me uneasy even though there's no family history of heart issues. I'm 29. The pain sometimes hits my rib side, other times its in the upper chest, and it's sharp. Bloating seems to make it feel easier, and when I overthink, my breathing feels weird but it settles down in about 45 minutes. What could be causing all this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety along with your chest pain. The fact that your cardiac tests have come back normal is reassuring. To address your symptoms, you can try taking an antacid medication for your possible GERD symptoms and an anti-anxiety medication for your anxiety symptoms. For your chest pain relief, you can take over-the-counter antacids like Tums (calcium carbonate) as needed for gas relief. For your anxiety symptoms, you can try an anti-anxiety medication like Xanax (alprazolam) at a low dose as prescribed by a doctor. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga may also help alleviate your symptoms.
