I recently had some outside food and due to gas and acidity my stomach started paining a lot since Saturday and is still continuing till now. The pain is not continuous but rather happening in a discrete manner. Sometimes it is peak and then it goes down. It gets more worsened during eating or running. I am also on medication prescribed by my dermatologist for fungal infection in nails. I am having Itrasys CF 100 mg capsule since 3 weeks as a part of course duration. If there is some possible relief medicine which I can take (it does not interact with the current medication going on) please help
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 ?
My 80-year-old father has recurrent episodes of rapid breathing and restlessness, mainly in the evening after lunch and afternoon sleep. He was hospitalized previously with severe breathlessness, diagnosed with acute LVF, and underwent coronary angiography. No angioplasty or repeat bypass was advised. He had bypass surgery 20 years ago. His oxygen saturation remained 98–99% during hospitalization. He also has chronic acidity, constipation, and a history of gastritis. Dytor 10 mg, previously prescribed SOS, was restarted recently as symptoms returned. Could these episodes be cardiac, pulmonary, or gastrointestinal in origin? Why does he remain relatively normal during the first half of the day? What further tests, treatment, or medication adjustments are recommended?
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.
