Question

I'm taking Metolar XR 25 and have been on it for about 10 or 11 years now. My blood pressure is staying pretty stable, but I've been dealing with some uncomfortable GI issues. I'm having lots of gas, stomach rumbling, loss of appetite, and a burning sensation in my stomach. Plus, constipation is a problem. Do you think it's time to switch medications?

Question

I was wondering if you could help me with something. Last night, I felt something moving in my anus after going to the toilet. There's also this little pain I've been experiencing in my lower left stomach and groin area. Sometimes it even feels like there's some kind of obstruction when I'm trying to have a bowel movement or when I urinate. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

I've been feeling like there's food stuck in my throat and it won't go down. My voice has gotten hoarse, and I've got this irritable bowel thing going on. My stomach hurts and feels like it's burning, and now I've started having pain in my lower back too. It's really uncomfortable and I'm starting to get pretty anxious about it. Any idea what could be going on?
