View allMy mom has gallstones that are 34mm in size can they be treated with medications or will she need surgery
For gallstones of 34mm, surgery is generally recommended, rather than medication. While medications can sometimes be used to dissolve cholesterol stones, this is not a reliable approach for large stones or stones causing symptoms.

I've just found out that my SGOTSGPT ratio is 2.3, and I read that it should be somewhere between 0.7 and 1.4. I'm really concerned about what this means for my health. Can you tell me what kind of treatment I might need? Are there specific foods I should steer clear of, and should I stop drinking alcohol entirely? How serious is this ratio for my liver? Also, I've got a vitamin D level of 14.21 ngml. Is that something to worry about?
A high SGOTSGPT ratio can indicate liver damage. To help lower your ratio and support your liver health, you can take Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, you should avoid fatty and fried foods, processed foods, and excessive sugar intake. It is advisable to limit or avoid alcohol consumption as it can further damage the liver. With a ratio of 2.3, it is concerning and indicates potential liver issues that need to be addressed. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring. Your low vitamin D level of 14.21ngml also needs attention, and you can take Vitamin D3 supplements 1000 IU daily to improve your levels.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with burping problems for the last six months, and now I've started to experience yawning and shortness of breath. It's pretty concerning, and on top of that, I get heartburn too. What could be causing all these symptoms?
You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I recommend trying over-the-counter medication such as Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to help reduce stomach acid production and alleviate your symptoms. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) as needed for the burping. If your symptoms persist, it's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
