I have a history of anxiety disorder. I am in great pain from past months. Please help me. I don't know what to do now I have been thinking the pain will go away but it comes back again and again when anxiety kicks in I feel severe dehydration also
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 ?
So I play with dogs cows etc while I am doing my morning walk and recently I was prescribed deworming medication and I was feeling quite an easy and had some digestion problems but now after the deworming I feel better and also while being I have observed some small worm like organisms three times very small thread like but wiggling which of stopped after the medication so my question is whether I should take deworming medication as a routine part I remember the doctor mentioning every 6 months but since I am interacting with animals everyday what is your take on the duration should I be taking it monthly is it harmful?
Since two months im facing severe burning in food pipe and stomach where i get burps of literal fire and no acidic liquid... i am on healthy diet i dont eat oily or junk food i only have food with salt pepper only idk why this is happening on and off
I feel lack of appetite since 3-4 days, but today I feel gassy and having loose stool and gassy burps, I had an tooth surgery for which I was on pain killers since last 6-7 days, also I had wet cough. I never had gastic problems, is this something related for liver function, shall I go for LFT? I am taken eno, pudinhara and digene but nothing work so I took a pantop 40 before dinner.
