My vitamin B12 level has been at 138 for the past two years and I'm having bowel movements three times a day. I've already tried taking Vitcofol injections, five doses of 2 ml, but didn't notice any improvement. I recently heard about Metacobalamin tablets and was wondering if I should try them. What's the right dosage? Is there another treatment that might help?

Question

I'm really worried about my wife. It's been about two months since she had our baby, and she's having really bad pain in her upper abdomen and back. We got an ultrasound done, and it showed multiple stones. Last month, she had a severe pain attack, and she's still having mild pain in her upper abdomen and between her ribs. Is removing the gallbladder the only solution, or are there other options we should consider? Would love some guidance on what we can do.

Question

I'm dealing with this really annoying problem where I seem to have way too much saliva all day long. Every morning I wake up, and my mouth is just full of it. It's been like this for over four years now, and it's super frustrating because if I try to swallow it, I feel really nauseous. I end up having to spit it out constantly. I'm just curious, are there any foods that might help with this issue, and what exactly could be causing this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Question

I've been having narrow stools for about a month now. They're not super thin, but definitely thinner than they used to be. Sometimes they go back to a normal size, but other times they're still pretty narrow. Should I be concerned about this?
