I've been waking up every morning feeling like I'm going to puke, but I don't actually vomit. It's just gagging, and sometimes a little bit of spit comes out. This has been happening for a few days now. I dont smoke or drink, and I eat a pretty normal dinnerabout four chapatis with sabji. I usually get about 6 to 9 hours of sleep a night. What's going on with me, and how can I stop this from happening?

It sounds like you might be experiencing morning nausea or acid reflux, especially since you mention gagging and saliva production. This can happen due to the stomach acids irritating the esophagus after a long night without food. I recommend avoiding heavy meals late at night, and consider eating a lighter dinner. If this persists, you might want to consult a doctor to check for reflux or other underlying causes.

I'm Ajay Sharma from Gurgaon. For the last 15 days, I've been noticing black stools, but there's no abdominal pain. I'm a bit concerned about it. Could you please share what might be going on?

Black stool can be caused by various factors, including bleeding in the upper GI tract, iron supplements, or certain foods; given your symptom of black stool for 15 days without abdominal pain, it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions like ulcers, gastritis, or gastrointestinal bleeding;

I've been diagnosed with a couple of stones in my kidney and gallbladder. While the kidney stones have completely dissolved, the recent ultrasound shows that the gallstones are still in raw formation. Is there any treatment option other than removing the gallbladder? I'm currently taking Udiliv 300.

For gallstones.... U would need surgical removal of gall bladder. Udiliv is given to prevent formation of gallstones in high risk patients such as obese patients n patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.
