I'm really worried about my husband. He's 30 years old, with a height of 5.4 ft and weighs 64 kg. We stay in Germany, and he's been having a rough time with his health lately, especially with frequent gastric issues. His cholesterol levels have been all over the place. The first test showed a triglycerides level of 701, and even though it went down to 516 on the second test after three months, it's still pretty high, right? His HDL is at 21 and LDL at 46, with a Lipase of 46 UI and TSH at 1.22 microUml. Are these numbers something we should be concerned about? What could be causing these gastric problems? We really need some guidance on what steps to take next.

Based on the information provided, your husband's high triglyceride levels and low HDL cholesterol levels may be contributing to his gastric issues. To help manage his triglyceride levels, he can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. Additionally, to improve his HDL levels, he can take Niacin 500mg once daily. For his gastric issues, he can take Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast. It is also important for him to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, and to engage in regular physical activity to improve his overall lipid profile and gastric health.

View allI'm really worried because I've had a stomach ache and an upset stomach for the past two days. I feel nauseous all the time and can't seem to get any sleep. On top of that, I've got a bad cough and cold. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and what I should do?
I'm sorry you're feeling this way. It sounds like you might be dealing with a stomach issue and a cold at the same time, which can make everything worse. If the symptoms persist, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor to get proper treatment and find some relief.

I'm really worried about the multiple calculi in my gallbladder lumen and the largest one is 13mm. The c.b.d is 3.2mm and it's visualized up to its retro pancreatic portion. There's no obvious intraductal calculus seen. What does all this mean? Should I be concerned about the size of the calculi or its location? What are the chances these will cause complications, and what steps should I take next?
The presence of multiple gallstones is identified, but there is no blockage of the bile ducts. If you're not experiencing symptoms, your doctor might suggest a wait-and-see approach, but if you do have symptoms or complications, surgery to remove the gallbladder may be necessary.

It's always best to consult with your healthcare provider about specific activities, including sexual activity or masturbation, when you have a liver condition like jaundice. Your doctor can give you tailored advice based on the severity of your condition and overall health.
