I recently had thin, almost stringy, and slightly flat stools, along with yellow liquid in the toilet water. I finished a course of antibiotics for diverticulitis of the small intestine. I have never had this type of stool before. Is this anything to be worried about?

I have a dull pain on the right side of my abdomen, which started this morning and is constant but not worsening, with an ache occurring every 5 minutes. I took Tylenol/Advil this morning and have no nausea, bloating, or changes in stool. I am a 59-year-old female with the pain located in the upper right side. I take Lysinopryl and Synthroid regularly. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

I'm having persistent bad breath even after brushing for over a year. The issue is that whatever I eat, including food, fruits, alcohol, and cigarettes, leaves a smelly residue in my mouth for hours. I'm 44 years old, masculine, and have a history of gastric issues. I've already consulted a dentist, but they didn't provide a solution. What could be causing this and what should I do next?

My wife is on Lipitor for high cholesterol and was prescribed 2mg of estrogen after a hysterectomy. She has been advised to stop taking the estrogen, but she is experiencing severe symptoms from abruptly stopping it. She is also on carvedilol for high blood pressure and Pantoprazole sodium for acid reflux. Can she continue taking the estrogen with her other medications, and is it safe to do so?

10 days ago, I went to a concert and drank excessively. The next morning, I woke up hungover and have been experiencing intermittent headaches in the back of my head, near the neck area, ever since. This is similar to a previous incident about 5 years ago where I had a lingering headache for two weeks after heavy drinking. What could this be and should I be concerned?
