Question

I've not been able to have a bowel movement for the last four days, even though I've been taking Cremaffin syrup, and it doesn't seem to help. My stomach feels really heavy and painful. What should I do?

Question

I'm having trouble with this weird jerking feeling in my stomach when I'm about to sleep, and it really keeps me awake. It's strange because it gets worse even with a little noise. When I wake up in the morning, I can't lie down without my mind racing and that seems to make my stomach uncomfortable, though there's no actual pain. I've had an endoscopy and there's no sign of acid reflux. Any ideas on what could be going on with me?

Question

It's been 6 days since my gallbladder was removed through laparoscopic surgery because of gallstones but I still haven't had a bowel movement. Urine output is fine but no stool even though I'm taking Duphalac. Is this normal after gallbladder surgery?

Question

I've been getting these sharp, quick pains in my lower chest, kinda like a prick behind my rib near the chest area. I've gone through a whole bunch of tests like the treadmill test, ECG, coronary calcium scoring, and lots of blood tests for heart stuff. Also did an endoscopy and got tests on urine, serum, stool, and more blood work, but nothing's been pinpointed by the doctor yet. I'm on Telma 80mg after breakfast for my BP, which is 13590, and Pantocid 40mg on an empty stomach before breakfast. I've been taking these for two months, but the pain still comes and goes, though a bit less often after meals and pops up randomly through the day. Could you give me some guidance on what this might be or what I should do next?
