Question: Thanks Doc! I've been having problems of gas, nausea, indigestion, possibly acid reflux and all. Acidity and gas medicine helped, but it persisted. On doctor's advice I had USG of upper and lower abdomen. The report says Grade 1 Fatty Liver and Cholelithiasis (biggest stone measuring 6.8mm. No surgery needed immediately, doctor says.
