I've been having this weird burning feeling in my stomach a couple of hours after eating, right around where it would be digesting, and there's also this mild pain just above my belly button. I'm starting to worry a bit, could it be something like an ulcer?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The stomach burning and mild pain near the belly button area, occurring 2-3 hours after eating, could be indicative of various conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or duodenal ulcers, but it's also possible that it's related to digestion issues, food intolerance, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment plan.

I've been diagnosed with gallstones and my MRCP shows cholelithiasis along with a lower insertion of the cystic duct into the CHD My LFTs are off with SGOT at 115 SGPT 289 ALP 141 and total bilirubin 16 The MRCP also suggests chronic liver disease with a contracted right lobe enlarged caudate lobe and mildly irregular margins My doctor recommended a lap cholecystectomy but I'm worried about what's causing the liver disease and how it should be treated Can you explain the possible causes and treatment options
Gallstone treatment depends on whether the stones cause symptoms. If asymptomatic, they often don't require treatment, but if they cause pain or complications, surgery to remove the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is the standard treatment. Medications like ursodeoxycholic acid can sometimes dissolve small, cholesterol-based stones

I'm a 29-year-old guy, and I've been diagnosed with a grade 3 fatty liver. I don't have diabetes and just drink occasionally. I recently had a fibroscan that showed no fibrosis, but my SGOT is 70, SGPT is 45. My total bilirubin level is 1.2, with direct bilirubin at 0.8, and my uric acid is 7.9. Should I be worried about these numbers, and what can I do to improve my liver health?
