I've just got my USG Abdomen Pelvis report and it says I've got mild hepatomegaly with fatty liver grade 1-2. I usually have alcohol about three times a week. I'm really worried about how serious this is and if it's going to be dangerous for my health. Could you let me know what advice or medicine you would recommend? And also, how long might it take to reverse this condition?

I've been diagnosed with two gallstones 15.4 mm and 13.6 mm in my gallbladder. Is there any way to get rid of them or dissolve them without surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid an operation if possible. What are my options?

If your gallstones are small and you are unable to have surgery, you may be able to dissolve your cholesterol stones by taking ursodiol (Actigall, Urso), a naturally occurring bile acid, two to four times a day. Consult your doctor before taking any medications

I've been dealing with antral gastritis and duodenitis for about 8 months now, and sometimes I get this weird sensation like my heart is skipping a beat. Is that something I should be worried about, or is it normal with these conditions?

Antral gastritis and duodenitis can cause discomfort and stress, which can, in turn, lead to sensations of skipped heartbeats or palpitations. This is because the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to the abdomen, can be irritated, causing changes in heart rhythm. While these sensations can be alarming, they are often benign. However, it's important to rule out any cardiac issues, especially if the sensations are persistent or accompanied by other symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Consult with your healthcare provider to ensure proper management of your gastrointestinal condition and to discuss your heart rhythm concerns.
