I feel indigestion and heartburn after meal. Stool is like paste. It feels like stool is not completely emptied. I have fatty liver issue grade 3. Is it due to liver problem or some gastric problem. I dont want to go for endoscopy.
Male 40Yrs, 90 kgs,185 cms. I have chronic mild gastritis and heartburn. Right now on esomeprazole 120mg and Itopride 150mg (divided dose) since 40 days. The gastritis and heartburn are under control. I am taking another medication(propranolol 40 mg and will last for atleast 4 months) due to which I have to take medicines for acidity. What is the max duration that I can be on this dosage for acidity. Any precautions that needs to be taken.
Dear Doctor,
I would like to seek your advice regarding my 80-year-old father.
In 2025, he was admitted to the same hospital with heavy breathing and discomfort in his lower chest and upper abdomen. He was diagnosed with acute gastritis, and we were told that his breathing difficulty could be related to the gastric problem.
In 2026, he was admitted again with almost identical symptoms, including heavy breathing and chest discomfort, but without pain or cramps in his chest, jaw or arm. This time, he was diagnosed with acute left ventricular failure (LVF).
We are confused as to why similar symptoms led to different diagnoses on these two occasions. He continues to experience these episodes, particularly after lunch and his afternoon sleep.
Could you please advise whether these recurring symptoms could be related to gastritis or acid reflux, or a cardiac condition ?
I was not feeling hungry since 5-6 days, and day before yesterday I started getting gassy burps and feeling gassy so I took pantop 40 which improve my situation, but with this I started loose stools or diarrhoea, it has been day 2 with the same situation but without gastic, I was on ketorol dt since 6-7 days for tooth surgery, which I immediately stopped after after the gastic problem. And I still don't feel like eating anything, my urine is normal.
