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 experiencing weight loss and abdominal pain after eating, and I feel full even after a small meal. There's also this constant irritation in my stomach. My doctor suggested an endoscopy which showed I have gastric ulcers. I've heard from some people that medicine might not be the best way to treat ulcers and that home remedies can help. Can you give me some advice on what I should do about this?

I'm feeling pretty nervous lately, and I'm not sure why. About a week ago, I went to a gastro specialist because I was really bloated. I noticed the bloating happens whenever I have dairy products, which is still an issue now. I've attached my blood test results, and they show that my LDL and NON-HDL levels are high. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take?

From your blood test results showing high LDL and NON HDL levels, along with your symptoms of bloating and nervousness, it is important to address your cholesterol levels and digestive issues. To lower your LDL and NON HDL levels, I recommend starting a medication called Atorvastatin. Additionally, since you are experiencing bloating with dairy products, you can try taking a lactase enzyme supplement like Lactaid before consuming dairy to help with digestion. It is also advisable to follow a low-cholesterol diet and engage in regular physical activity to improve your overall health. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your cholesterol levels.

I recently had my bilirubin levels checked, and I'm a bit worried because my total bilirubin is at 2.5. My direct bilirubin seems fine, but it's my indirect bilirubin that's high at 2.2. Everything else like ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin, globulin, and the AG ratio is normal. I had jaundice about four months ago, and I'm wondering if this could be related. What could be causing this high indirect bilirubin, and is there anything I can do to bring it down? Would really appreciate some advice.
