Gallbladder's a tiny organ storing bile. But sometimes it acts up, needing removal via cholecystectomy. This surgery improves your well-being, relieving issues like tummy aches and poor digestion caused by gallbladder troubles. Following a gastroenterologist's post-op instructions is crucial.

Hello, I am a 19yo male. Months ago, I had some neurological symptoms and went to hospital. There, a blood test showed that I had really low B12 vitamin (under 90 pg/mL). I had some shots to increase B12 levels and hospital adviced me to go to GP and have gastroscopy and colonoscopy to find the cause of the deficiency, because it was not normal at that age to have that low b12 levels. So, the days I was taking the B12 shots and planning to go to a GP, I had some bowel symptoms, including changes in stool size (small-thin and rounded / however not hard to pass), and rarely a little blood on them. When I went to the GP, I told him the whole story and told me that I had to do some other blood tests first to see if there is any gastric inflammation and then we would see if endoscopy is needed. After doing several blood tests (ECR, CRP, etc..) and faecal calprotectin test, GP told me that results were normal and did not show any inflammation in stomach or colon, so no endoscopy was needed. He told me that these symptoms were from functional gastrointestinal disorders and hemmorhoids. All of these happened like 6 months before. Now, I still have small-thin and rounded stools (rarely i pass normal stools but most of times they are like that) - blood is very rare and in small amount. Generally, my diet is normal (includes fiber), i drink a lot of water, no anxiety, not anaemic, normal weight and I exercise. So, these changes in bowel habits that happened months ago (without having any lifestyle change) + little blood rarely + the B12 defficiency I had, make me think I should visit another GP and push for a colonoscopy. I tried to search if increasing B12 would cause such changes in bowel habits, but did not find something. The only family history I know are that some first degree relatives had a small B12 defficiency without symptoms and second degree relative had gastrectomy a lot of years ago. I am a little panicked because Ive been seeing colon cancer is on the rise among young people and unreasoned bowel changes that dont leave soon + blood (however mine is very rarely and little) may be red flag. Especially most cases in young people are advanced stages becaus they are not caught early. Thanks for reading till the end, what do you suggest me to do? Go to another GP? And even push for endoscopy? Finally, could the cause of hard pebble stool be somehow (?) the elevation of B12 so my system need some time to go back to normal again? Because B12 deficiency was slowly developing for years.

While low B12 levels can affect the body in many ways, they usually don’t impact bowel habits like this. It’s great that you’ve had some tests, and they’ve ruled out any inflammation in your stomach or colon. Your symptoms might be due to functional gastrointestinal disorders or hemorrhoids, which are quite common and generally not too serious. Keep an eye on your symptoms, and try not to worry too much. However, if you’re still concerned, getting a second opinion from another doctor might help give you peace of mind.

Dehiscence stomach wound almost closed but bleeding a little is that ok, wearing eakin wound pouch
Female | 52
The stomach wound seems unhealed, and some bleeding persists. The reason is that the wound hasn't fully closed. It's good that you are using a wound pouch. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and apply gentle pressure to stop the bleeding. If the bleeding continues, contact your gastroenterologist.

I am 33 years old. I have constipation, loss of apoetite and sleeplessness.
Male | 33
Bowel disorders like constipation, lower appetite, and sleep disturbances come to your attention, and it is very natural for you to feel worried. Environmental stress, dietary changes, or any other underlying health issues could result in these ailments. One of the measures to overcome chronic constipation is the use of high fiber foods in your regular diet, drinking enough water, and being active in exercise. Where the issue of healthy appetite is concerned and better sleep is considered, the setting up of a regular daily program in combination with the practice of some kind of relaxation techniques to cope with stress can be the key. Still, if these manifestations are prolonged, I would advise you on making an appointment with a specialist who will carry out a full analysis and give you personal suggestions. Your health is crucial, and obtaining constant help from a physician may be the right way.

Am 26years old am feeling like bloating and sharp pain in lower abdomen
Female | 26
The feeling of being full with a sharp pain in the lower abdomen could be gas in your tummy or a stomach bug. Or maybe something you ate just didn't agree with you. Eating smaller meals and avoiding the foods that usually make you gassy can help. Drinking water regularly can also be beneficial. If the pain doesn't go away, visit a gastroenterologist.

Acid reflux disease may have chest acid reflux as a common symptom. It happens if the stomach acid backtracks through esophagus leading to chest pain, burning sensation and difficulty swallowing. The best treatment for acid reflux disease is visiting a gastroenterologist.

Is excessive urine also a symptom of peeliya or fatty liver
Male | 18
Pee turns dark yellow in yellow fever. Peeliya is liver-derived trouble that is the usual etiology, while fatty liver syndrome is primarily related to a bad diet. As a measure, try to eat a balanced and healthy diet and avoid the use of fatty foods too.

Female | 31
Experiencing a burning sensation after eating can be caused by factors like acid reflux (GERD), spicy or acidic foods, food allergies, ulcers, or other reasons. It's advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. They can assess your symptoms and medical history to identify the underlying cause and recommend appropriate measures to alleviate the discomfort.

MY sister underwent a laparoscopic surgery to remove gall bladder due to stone and found appendix also , was also removed. Now its been 2 months and she is experiencing weight loss and less appetite. when checked blood found SGOT-72.54 AND SGPT 137.47, what is the reason
Female | 27
Your sister's weight loss and reduced appetite after surgery are normal. Her body is adjusting to the change. High SGOT and SGPT blood levels indicate liver inflammation, which is common post-surgery. This also affects appetite. Follow up with her doctor. They may recommend diet changes or medicines to help her recover and regain appetite.

Hlo ma'am mai 3 may ko unwanted 72 tablet Li thi aur kl se mere pet me drd h aur loose motions h kya kru
Female | 25
I understand you’re feeling sick after taking Unwanted 72. The pain in your stomach and diarrhea can be due to the side effects of the drug. This happens because it contains hormones that affect your body. Drink lots of water so that you don’t get dehydrated. Eat light meals such as bananas, rice, and bread. Take a rest and do not eat spicy or greasy foods. If the symptoms persist then please visit a gastroenterologist.

I woke up to a weird feeling in my chest and whenever I do fast or intense activity for example jump or run I feel something go up to my throat and make me cough it doesn’t hurt just a little weird
Male | 18
Your symptoms could be of acid reflux or the more severe form called the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Acid reflux can be defined as the condition where the liquid in the stomach drains back into the throat area, causing a burning sensation in the chest and throat. I recommend you to see a gastroentroogist who will help you to diagnose your condition and propose the proper treatment.

I feel something breathing in my lower stomach
Female | 30
You feel a strange movement in your belly, and it's a bit frightening. However, it might be normal body processes occurring. Your intestines could be moving gases through them. Alternatively, muscles contracting can cause that sensation. Consuming meals quickly or certain foods can trigger this feeling. To find relief, try taking smaller bites, sipping water, and eating gentle foods like rice or bananas. Visit a gastroenterologist if the problem persists.

Female | 64
Vomiting, headaches, and pain on her right side can mean she has pancreatitis, which is very serious. Take her to the hospital now. They’ll be able to find out what’s wrong and make her feel better. Also, bring along her insulin and any medicine she takes for high blood pressure.

I am 27 Yr old male I m feeling stomach burning from past 15 days
Male | 27
Stomach burning could be due to a couple of reasons. One might think that the burning sensation in the stomach is caused by hot foods or stress from being one of two but acid reflux can also be the reason. There are other symptoms present like bloating or chest pain. To overcome this, take only small meals and cut off spicy or acidic foods. Another thing, do not eat just before going to bed. If it is a serious condition, you could get a gastroenterologist's consultation.
