I've noticed that I've developed quite the beer belly from drinking too much beer. Is there anything I can do to get rid of it? Would love some advice on how to tackle this issue.

View allI'm dealing with this phlegm in my chest for quite a while now, even though I don't have a cough. It's super annoying, especially when I'm eating, and it's making me feel like I'm going to vomit, sometimes to the point where I end up losing all the food I just ate. What could be causing this? Should I be worried, and what can I do to get rid of it?
take tablet mucinac for twice a day for 5 days

I'm getting this weird sensation like something's stuck in my throat. It's odd because I haven't eaten anything that could actually get stuck. Could this be related to GERD or might it be something different? Any ideas on what's going on?
It is possible that you are experiencing symptoms of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) which can sometimes cause a feeling of something stuck in the throat. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking over-the-counter antacids such as Tums (calcium carbonate) or Maalox (aluminum hydroxidemagnesium hydroxide) to help reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can try using H2 blockers such as Zantac (ranitidine) or proton pump inhibitors such as Prilosec (omeprazole) to further reduce acid production. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the sensation persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I recently got my blood test results back, and it shows my SGOT is at 43 and SGPT is 85, which seems higher than normal. Should I be concerned about this? I've had an ultrasound on my abdomen too, and it says I have a Grade 1 fatty liver. I do drink alcohol about once a week. How serious is this situation? What steps should I take next?
Concerning that your BP isn't in the normal range despite taking Tazloc AM! Consider discussing the following with your doctor: 1. *Dose adjustment*: Increasing or adjusting the dosage of Tazloc AM. 2. *Combination therapy*: Adding another medication to complement Tazloc AM. 3. *Lifestyle changes*: Enhancing diet, exercise, and stress management to support BP control. 4. *Monitoring*: Regular BP checks to adjust treatment as needed. Remember, it's essential to work closely with your doctor to find the right treatment plan for your high blood pressure.
