My 69-year-old mother has been diagnosed with multiple gallstones, the largest being 6mm. The doctor suggested surgery but she's hesitant. Are there any effective Ayurveda or homeopathy treatments to dissolve or remove gallstones without surgery?

So my mom, Karthiyayani, went to your clinic on the 9th because she had this stomach pain after taking the Duvanta tablet at night. You originally prescribed Palmigas, Duvanta, Gpital, and Pan D. She didn't take the Pan D at night like you instructed, only in the morning. We're just a bit worried since your clinic isn't open on Sundays, and wanted to ask if she should keep taking these meds or not.
Karthiyayani should continue the prescribed medicines: Medicines to Continue 1. Palmigas 2. Duvanta (as directed) 3. Gpital (as directed) Next Steps 1. Monitor stomach pain and report any worsening. 2. Follow dosage instructions. 3. Schedule a follow-up appointment for Monday or earliest available time. Please confirm her condition improves or worsens. If concerns arise, contact the clinic or on-call doctor.

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.
