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've been dealing with this loose motion issue for the past couple of days, and it's getting really concerning. It's not really watery, but there's a lot of mucus in it, and Ive had to go about 45 times. Plus, there's this annoying pain in my stomach. What could be going on?

Question

I'm having some really bad backaches at night, and it feels like there's gas building up in my back. When I press certain spots on my back, the gas only seems to release through my mouth, which is really odd. It normally doesn't release otherwise and it's messing with my sleep. This all started happening after I had a C-section. What could be going on? Is there something I can do to fix it?

Question

I've been experiencing stomach pain in the upper left area, and it seems to get worse after I eat or walk more than usual. I'm not sure what's causing it, but it's really uncomfortable, especially with the gas problem I have. Could this be something serious, or is there anything I can do to relieve the pain?
