I'm really worried about my dad. Ever since he had an angioplasty about 20 days ago, he's been dealing with a lot of vomiting. It seems like he can't keep any solids down, except for fruits, ragi malt, and some dosas. Should I be concerned, and what might be causing this?

I'm 30 and have been dealing with a gastric problem for the past 6 months. My endoscopy shows acute fundal erosion, and the ultrasound points to changes in the liver, saying I have a fatty liver. I'm taking medication, but I'm not seeing any improvement. What should I do? Can you offer any suggestions or treatments?

For your gastric issue with fundal erosion, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Maalox to help with symptoms. For your fatty liver, you can try a medication like Ursodiol to improve liver function and reduce the accumulation of fat in the liver. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding alcohol to improve your liver health. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm experiencing weight loss and abdominal pain after eating, and I feel full even after a small meal. There's also this constant irritation in my stomach. My doctor suggested an endoscopy which showed I have gastric ulcers. I've heard from some people that medicine might not be the best way to treat ulcers and that home remedies can help. Can you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
