I'm supposed to have an endoscopy tomorrow because I've been dealing with a really bad sore throat and some keratosis happening there. But today I took cetirizine and paracetamol. Can I still go through with the endoscopy, or could this be an issue?

I'm experiencing chest pain or some discomfort every time I eat sugar or sweets. Could this be related to a gastric issue? Which type of doctor should I see about this?
Chest discomfort after consuming sweets could be due to acid reflux or gastritis, as sugary foods can sometimes irritate the stomach lining or trigger reflux. Please consult a **gastroenterologist** for an evaluation to rule out other causes and confirm the diagnosis.
