I've just gotten my abdomen sonogram results, and everything seems okay, except there are a few small calculi found in my gall bladder. I'm wondering if this is something I should be worried about. Can these be dealt with without surgery, or what's the best treatment approach?

View allI've been dealing with acidity for the past year, especially in the mornings. I've tried a bunch of medicines, and while they help, I end up feeling really weak. What could be causing this, and do you have any suggestions on what I should do next?
To alleviate morning acidity and weakness, consider the following: modify your diet by avoiding trigger foods (spicy, fatty, or citrusy), eating smaller, more frequent meals, and incorporating alkaline-rich foods (fruits, vegetables, and whole grains); in addition to antacids or acid reducers, try natural remedies like ginger, aloe vera juice, or licorice tea;

I've been feeling strange for the past couple of months, and it's happened twice already. I get this itchy feeling in my throat, and there's a heaviness right in the middle of my chest and the tube that leads from my throat to my stomach. It gets really uncomfortable. Breathing feels really tight, although it's still okay, but then I also get this uneasy feeling in my stomach. After about a week, it settles down, but then I start having pain in my lower abdomen. I used pantocid before, which helped, but now I'm confused. Is this a gastric issue, something heart-related, or maybe a breathing problem? Can you offer any advice?

I've been really worried because I used to have this habit of eating slate pencils when I was a teenager, like from age 15 to 17. I gave it up for a while, but just recently, I found myself eating about two boxes this year. Lately, I've noticed that my bowel movements have been off, going to the toilet three times a day, and I'm wondering if eating those pencils back then or even now could be the cause. Does the slate pencil get expelled naturally, or is there something more serious going on? Should I be considering some kind of treatment or operation to get it out of my system? Who should I talk to for help with this? Any advice would be really appreciated!
it can be due to worms infestations and low calcium level so get your calcium kevels done and take albendazole 400 mg stat
