I've been feeling this weird fullness in my upper abdomen for the last couple of days. At first, I kind of brushed it off thinking it would go away on its own, but now it's really starting to get on my nerves. Should I be worried or is it something that'll likely pass if I just wait it out a bit longer?

Feeling of fullness in your upper abdomen could be due to gas, indigestion, or mild gastritis. Try eating smaller meals, avoid heavy or spicy foods, and drink plenty of water. If it persists or worsens, consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues.

Question

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She's been dealing with these severe bleeding hemorrhoids for over three years now, but in the last week, the bleeding has been really bad. It's a tough situation because we can't opt for surgery right now with our baby being just four months old. We're planning to have the surgery in May when our older son has his school break. Until then, do you have any advice on how we can manage or stop the bleeding? Were really concerned about the amount of blood she's losing.

I'm having trouble with my breathing at times, especially when I'm lying down, and I also experience a lot of acid reflux and burping. Could this be connected to heart issues or is it more likely something to do with my digestion? Who should I get in touch with for this?

Question

I'm on medication for stomach tuberculosis and it's been nine months so far. I've heard that for stomach TB, you need to take the meds for at least a year to avoid the risk of MDR. Is that actually true?
