I'm really concerned about my breathing issues that have been going on for 8 months now. It gets worse when I lie down, and when I wake up, I find myself burping a lot. There's also this feeling like somethings stuck in my throat every couple of days. After doing physical activities, I struggle with rapid breathing. I've even had experiences with chest tightness and a bloated stomach. Plus, I can't sleep in air-conditioned rooms or in cooler temperatures. What could be going on, and what should I do?

I'm curious about something I've heard recently. Is it okay to drink sabja seeds water at night before going to bed? I've been looking for ways to improve my digestion and wondered if this might help. Would love to hear your thoughts on this!

I had an ultrasound that showed two echogenic foci measuring 4.6mm and 3mm but my liver, kidneys, spleen, and pancreas are normal. My doctor recommended surgery but I'm hesitant can this be treated with medications instead or should I wait a month to see if it resolves on its own? I really don't want to rush into a laparoscopy unless absolutely necessary. What would you suggest?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
