I've been getting these sharp, quick pains in my lower chest, kinda like a prick behind my rib near the chest area. I've gone through a whole bunch of tests like the treadmill test, ECG, coronary calcium scoring, and lots of blood tests for heart stuff. Also did an endoscopy and got tests on urine, serum, stool, and more blood work, but nothing's been pinpointed by the doctor yet. I'm on Telma 80mg after breakfast for my BP, which is 13590, and Pantocid 40mg on an empty stomach before breakfast. I've been taking these for two months, but the pain still comes and goes, though a bit less often after meals and pops up randomly through the day. Could you give me some guidance on what this might be or what I should do next?

-It sounds like youve undergone thorough testing, and it's good to know that nothing major has been detected. The pain you're experiencing could be related to acid reflux or muscle strain, especially since it's worse after eating. If the pain persists

Why do only some people get anal fissures from occasional hard stool when everyone experiences it at least once? Is there something different about their anal structure? I've had LIS surgery but still worry can the tendency to develop fissures from hard stool be completely eliminated like it is for others?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had an ultrasound a couple of days ago, and it said her liver is bigger than normal at 159 mm with mildly increased echotexture. Theres no sign of dilated IHBR or any abscess. Most other organs like her gall bladder, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, and uterus seem normal, but she has been feeling nauseous consistently for the last 10 days and it's hard for her to eat. She has diabetes and high blood pressure for which she's on medication. What do you think could be causing these symptoms, and what should we do next?
