Question

I've noticed that whenever I add milk to my diet, I start to feel some pain in my stomach, and it seems to trigger gas issues. I also get this feeling of acidity and sometimes deal with constipation. I'm wondering if I can use milk powder as an alternative to meet my dairy needs. Is it healthy to make that switch, and are there any possible side effects I should be aware of?

If you are having problems when taking milk or milk products, chances are you will get those problems with milk powder as well. But you can try. Take small quantities initially and if its alright, you can continue. There is no problem.

Question

I'm thinking about starting my day with two boiled eggs on an empty stomach, but I've heard mixed things about it. Some people say it might cause gas. Is it actually safe to eat boiled eggs first thing in the morning, or should I be concerned about digestive issues?

Question

I'm having some concerns and need advice. Yesterday morning, I took an ascazin tab and since then I've been feeling bloated or like my belly is full even without eating. Could it be the ascazin tab causing this, or maybe it's related to the MMR vaccine? Later in the evening on the same day, I also started experiencing shortness of breath and feeling lightheaded. I'm really worried because I have no fever, cough, or cold. Can you help figure out what's going on with my stomach?

Question

I'm a bit worried since my scan showed a polyp in my gall bladder. Is this similar to a stone, or is it more like an overgrown cell?
