I've been feeling really concerned lately and I'm hoping you can help. I don't quite understand the difference between erosions and ulcers. What can actually cause these issues? And most importantly, how can I treat or cure them?

I've been dealing with some digestive changes since my laparoscopic cholecystectomy a month ago. Now, every morning I'm usually going to the bathroom twice or even three times. What I find odd is that the first stool looks normal, but after I eat, the second one that comes out quickly, like within 15 or 20 minutes, is whitish. I recently got my liver profile checked, and my bilirubin is a bit high at 1.1 because of higher indirect bilirubin, and my ALT is 66. Although my appetite is good and digestion seems okay, I take Enzar Forte once at night after eating.

Is it something serious, or maybe related to my recent surgery?
-Your symptoms might be related to bile flow changes after gallbladder removal, which can sometimes cause variations in stool color and frequency. The slightly elevated bilirubin and ALT could warrant monitoring but don't seem alarming with your current d

I'm recovering from jaundice and I've been really strict with my diet for the past month. But I'm still getting mild fevers at night and that nauseous feeling keeps coming back. My test results seem normal with bilirubin at 0.7, SGOT at 90, and SGPT at 65. I'm currently taking Liv 52, Ulsys 300, and Nirocil syrup. Could you help me understand why I'm still feeling this way?
