I've been dealing with stomach issues for the past decade, and despite seeing doctors, its still ongoing. My stomach seems to be getting bigger, and I feel like gas is just trapped inside all the time, and Im struggling with bowel movements too. What can I do to get some relief?

View allI've recently been told I have grade 1 fatty liver, and I used to have irritable bowel syndrome. I've been on antibiotics for a liver infection for a few days. I'm experiencing pain in my liver area from the infection, but there's also a constant pain in my abdomen, especially when I press on it, and sometimes even without pressing. This has been going on for months. What could be causing this pain? I had an ultrasound, and it only showed the liver problem. I really want to understand what's going on so it can be treated. Can you help?
The persistent abdominal pain, despite antibiotics for liver infection, could be related to your pre-existing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as fatty liver disease and IBS often co-exist; other possible causes may include inflammation, scarring, or adhesions from past liver or abdominal issues; consider consulting a gastroenterologist to investigate further and develop a comprehensive treatment plan addressing both your fatty liver and IBS symptoms.

My mom is 65 with multiple 9mm gallstones but her appetite is fine. She has occasional gas and mild pain, nothing severe. The doctor recommended surgery but mentioned it's high risk because of her severe sleep apnea. Can we just continue Udiliv for 2 years to dissolve the stones or is surgery really necessary?
Surgery is generally recommended for gallstones if the patient has symptoms. However, given your mom’s sleep apnea, non-surgical options like ursodeoxycholic acid (Udiliv) may help in the short term, though the stones are unlikely to fully dissolve. Consider discussing surgery timing based on her condition.

I've been taking the hp kit for a week now, but I accidentally took the evening dose this morning. Once I realized it, I took the correct dose in the evening too. Is there anything I should do or watch out for? Could this mix-up cause any serious issues?
nothing will happen.
