View allI've been dealing with something odd for the last couple of weeks. After eating, especially when I've had a big meal, my temperature goes up to around 99F and my pulse shoots up to 100bps, making me feel really uncomfortable. Sometimes, I also get these random pains in my abdomen, mostly on the right side, both upper and lower. The fever and pulse eventually settle down to normal after a few hours, but medications like paracetamol or ibuprofen dont seem to help at all. Any idea what's going on with me?
Based on your symptoms of elevated temperature, increased pulse rate, and abdominal pain after meals, it is possible that you may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or an underlying gastrointestinal issue. I recommend you to try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks to see if it helps with your symptoms. Additionally, you can take an antispasmodic medication like Dicyclomine 10-20mg three times a day before meals to help with the abdominal pain. It is important to also avoid heavy meals, spicy foods, and caffeine which can exacerbate gastritis symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed a lump just below my rib on the right side, and its really uncomfortable, especially when I try to lie on that side. It kind of feels like somethings pushing against my rib. What could this possibly be? Should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may have a lump or swelling near your rib, which could be due to various causes such as a muscle strain, benign growth, or inflammation. I recommend seeing a doctor for a physical examination and possibly some imaging tests to determine the cause and get appropriate treatment.

I've got a quick question about my hbsag levels. They came back at 0.01, and I'm not quite sure what to make of it. Is that a normal reading, or should I be worried? I'd really like to understand the normal hbsag range and find out how serious it could be if it's active. Just trying to wrap my head around this, and any advice would be appreciated.
Your HBsAg level of 0.01 likely indicates no active infection, but its essential to discuss the result with your doctor for proper interpretation based on your health condition. If active, Hepatitis B can be dangerous, but it is manageable with proper care and treatment.
