I've been having some trouble with my breathing lately and went for a lung X-ray, which came back normal. I also had an endoscopy, and the report mentioned issues like 13rd lower oesophagitis, lax cardia, and pangastritis. It also noted mild erythema in the stomach's fundus, body, and antrum. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Is this something that might lead to cancer? And how could something going on with my stomach be causing me shortness of breath? I'd really appreciate any insight or advice you might have.

If your symptoms of shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, or chest discomfort persist or worsen, its important to seek medical attention. A gastroenterologist may need to monitor your condition, and if necessary, perform further investigations such as a 24-hour pH study to assess acid reflux or endoscopic ultrasound to evaluate stomach issues more thoroughly. gastritis and acid reflux can contribute to your symptoms of shortness of breath, these conditions are manageable with the right medications and lifestyle changes. Addressing your stomach issues through medication and lifestyle modifications should help alleviate your symptoms over time.

I was diagnosed with jaundice a few months back, and Im wondering if it's okay to start taking Himalaya Liv 52 now without checking with my doctor first. Could this help my liver recover, or should I be cautious about any risks?

It is generally safe to take Himalaya Liv 52 as a liver support supplement, even if you have a history of jaundice. The recommended dosage for Himalaya Liv 52 is usually 1-2 tablets twice a day. However, it is always best to consult with your general physician before starting any new medication or supplement, especially if you have a history of jaundice.

I've been having a lot of gas trouble along with stomach pain and a headache, and it's not getting better. Could this be something serious? Do I need surgery or any specific treatment?

It could be gastritis or IBS; not likely surgical—diet changes and medication can offer relief.
