I've been having this issue where every morning and evening, for about a week now, I feel super sick and start gagging uncontrollably, but I don't actually get sick. Plus, I've had these constant headaches that just won't go away, and there's no way I could be pregnant. What could be going on with me?

View allSo I've had mild splenomegaly for the last four years and also deal with IBS. I'm really curious if my enlarged spleen might be the reason behind all these digestive problems. Could they be connected?
The ultrasound report indicates "gas distended bowel loops" in your lower abdomen, which means that there is an accumulation of gas in the intestines, causing them to expand. _What does it mean?_ This condition is often related to: 1. _Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)_: A common disorder affecting the large intestine, causing abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel movements. 2. _Functional abdominal pain_: Recurring abdominal pain without any obvious cause. 3. _Gas and bloating_: Swallowing air, eating certain foods, or having food intolerance can lead to gas accumulation. _Why does it occur?_ 1. _Food intolerance_: Lactose, gluten, or high-FODMAP foods can cause gas and bloating. 2. _Eating habits_: Eating too quickly, not chewing food properly, or drinking carbonated beverages can lead to gas accumulation. 3. _Stress and anxiety_: Stress can exacerbate IBS symptoms. _How to cure it?_ 1. _Dietary changes_: Avoid trigger foods, eat smaller meals, and choose low-FODMAP foods. 2. _Probiotics_: Consider taking probiotics to promote gut health. 3. _Stress management_: Practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. 4. _Medications_: Your doctor has prescribed Pansec (Pantoprazole) for acid reflux and Meftal Spas (Mefenamic acid) for pain relief.

I'm a bit concerned about my liver. I recently received an ultrasound report that says my liver is normal in size, about 14.0 cm, but there's a mild diffuse increase in echogenicity, indicating grade I fatty changes. Theres no focal mass lesion or IHBR dilatation seen. Should I be worried about these findings? What exactly does "mild diffuse increase in echogenicity" mean, and what are grade I fatty changes? Is there something specific I should be doing or monitoring because of this, or are these changes considered normal?
The liver is of normal size (14.0 cm) and demonstrates mild diffuse fatty changes, which are likely grade I in severity. There are no signs of any focal masses or bile duct dilatation. This suggests early-stage fatty liver changes without any significant abnormalities.

I'm 19 years old and recently noticed something strange - my stomach moves in a way that feels like a heartbeat. I'm not sure if it's something that has always been there, but I've only noticed it in the last couple of months. Could this be something normal or should I be worried about it?
it is not related to that
