I've been experiencing these sharp, needle-like pains in my chest that come and go within a few seconds. At first, they were on the right side, but now they're also happening on the left and sometimes even under my left arm. This all started after I began having that burping, indigestion feeling last week. I've noticed that physical exercise gives me a bit of relief, but it still feels like maybe there's a burp stuck in my chest or something. Should I be concerned about this?

Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). To help relieve your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter antacids such as Tums or Maalox. Additionally, you can also try medications like Omeprazole (Prilosec) or Ranitidine (Zantac) to reduce stomach acid production. It is important to avoid trigger foods such as spicy or fatty foods, caffeine, and alcohol. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been on medication for abdominal tuberculosis since September 2019, but I haven't noticed any improvement. In fact, I lost about 8 kg last December when I was hospitalized for severe stomach pain and couldn't eat properly for almost a month, even though I consistently took my meds. Could this be a case of MDR? How can I be sure if it's MDR?

I'm really worried about my ALTSGPT level, which is at 65 UL, and my creatinine is 0.64 mgdL, with chloride at 100 mEqL. Are there any complications I should be aware of with these levels? Should I be thinking about getting more tests done, or maybe making some changes to my diet? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I've been having this weird feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for the last couple of weeks, and now I've been dealing with chest pain too. About three days ago, the chest pain got worse, but it's kinda settled down now. I saw an ENT specialist who thinks it's Acid Reflux and suggested taking Pan D capsules and Sucrafil syrup for a week. The chest pain is better, but this throat lump feeling won't go away. I even had an Echo stress test when the pain got bad, and luckily that came back okay. The ENT said I should check in with a chest doctor too. Any ideas on how I can get rid of this throat sensation and chest pain? It's really bugging me.
Probable diagnosis is Gerd, patient is advised pan d ,orally.once daily for 14 days before food..Avoid spicy foods.
