Question

I have a 9mm gallstone and my bilirubin is at 2.3 but the only symptom I notice is slightly yellow eyes. Are there any good treatment options besides surgery? I'd really prefer to avoid going under the knife if possible. What would you recommend?

Question

I'm dealing with a lot of phlegm in my throat and lungs, which is making me cough a lot. I recently had laser fissurectomy and haemorrhoidopexy, and I'm already taking a lot of antibiotics. Every time I cough, it hurts, especially near the surgery area. I've been using Syp. Ascoril LS, 5ml three times a day for the past three days, and while it's helped a bit, I'm not completely better yet. Do you have any suggestions for a syrup that can help clear the phlegm and ease the cough without causing more pain?

Question

I'm wondering about this 17 mm stone in my gall bladder that I recently found out about. I'm not in any pain right now, even though it's pretty big. I'm 42 years old and a bit unsure about what to do. Should I get the surgery done right away, or is it okay to wait a year or so since I'm not feeling any discomfort at the moment? I understand surgery is necessary eventually, but I'm curious if there's any harm in waiting a bit given my current situation.

Question

I'm really worried because my GGT level has gone up to 250. Is there any way to bring it down in about a week or so? Could you suggest any medications or treatments that might help? I'm really looking forward to your advice.
