I've been dealing with acidity problems for the last 5 years, and it's been really tough. I get these severe stomach aches because of it, and they only seem to go away when I take medicine like meftal spas. I'm really looking for a more permanent solution for this. What can I do?

i understand your concern...try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid stress,consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over pantaprazole 40 mg twice daily before food with above for 15 days.

View allI'm 22 and I've been dealing with jaundice. My bilirubin level is at 2.7, and I'm worried about whether that's considered severe. My doctor suggested taking Celyne for four days. I'm wondering if that's necessary or if there are other medications I could use to help with my condition. Can you help me with this?

I'm 50 and used to be addicted to alcohol, but I quit completely a year ago. For the past three months, I've been dealing with loose motions about 4 to 5 times a day. I saw a doctor and did all sorts of tests like ultrasound, blood, and stool tests. Everything came back normal no kidney issues, no diabetes, just a minor fatty liver. My hemoglobin levels are low. Could low hemoglobin be the reason for these loose motions? Also, I've been on high blood pressure medications for 25 years. I'm not sure what to do next or if there are other tests I should consider. Any advice?
Its unlikely that low hemoglobin alone is causing your loose motions, but it could contribute to overall weakness. Since you have a history of high blood pressure and fatty liver, its important to follow up with your doctor for further tests, like checking for gastrointestinal issues or infections, and possibly adjusting your medication. Staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet will also help.

I've just been told I have grade 2 fatty liver NASH, and I'm trying to wrap my head around what kind of diet I should follow. Since I eat a lot of rice, I'm really curious about which type would be best for me. Could you help me figure this out?
For grade 2 fatty liver NASH, it is important to follow a healthy diet to manage the condition. You should focus on consuming a diet that is low in saturated fats, refined sugars, and processed foods. Instead, opt for a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. In terms of rice, it is recommended to choose whole grains such as brown rice or wild rice over white rice. Brown rice is a good option as it is high in fiber and nutrients, which can be beneficial for your liver health. You can include brown rice in your diet in moderation and pair it with lean proteins and plenty of vegetables for a well-balanced meal. Additionally, it is important to monitor your portion sizes and avoid overeating, even if it is a healthier option like brown rice. Regular exercise and staying hydrated are also important factors in managing fatty liver NASH.
