Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Have Discomfort Under Left Breast. History Of GERD And High BP In Family. Abdominal Pain. Recommendations?
I am experiencing minor discomfort under my left breast, almost like heartburn but different. It comes and goes, often worse in the evening after I have eaten. We have GERD history in our family as well as high blood pressure, though I am only 31 and don't think I would be affected by that yet? Also over the past 2-3 years, my abdomen has grown so much. Regardless how much or little I eat, I cannot lose weight. I look almost 7 months pregnant!! I get abdominal pain quite regulary and lately can barely eat much at all, never hungry. Also there is an inconsistency with my bowel movements. What can you recommend?

Hi thanks for using HCM.
Your history suggests gastric acidity problem.
Recommend? Proper timings of food, avoid spicy food, avoid heavy meals, walk for some time after food, plenty of water, Consult dietician for proper diet, weight reduction, regular exercises and Tab H2 blocker or proton pump inhibitor like pantoprazole with domperidone every evening one. Hope I answered your query. Wish you good health.
Take care.
Regards Dr.Lohit
