I've been dealing with a bit of a situation. A week ago, I had a throat infection and was on medication for it, but then I started having stomach upset and loose motions. I decided to stop the medication, and I tried arrowroot powder to help. It seemed to work, but now, for the past three days, I've had stomach pain on both sides. I dont usually have issues with gastric acidity, but the pain gets worse when I walk, go upstairs, or take a deep breath. What should I do about this?

If the pain is severe, constant, or associated with symptoms like vomiting, fever, bloody stools, or significant tenderness, it would be wise to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues, such as an intestinal infection or inflammation.

Question

I'm really worried because my SGPT level is at 75 and my total bilirubin is 7.5. Could you tell me what I can do to bring down the bilirubin levels? And how long might it take for everything to get back to normal?

Question

I've been struggling with high bilirubin levels for a couple of years now, and I'm feeling quite worried. The doctors checked for gallstones with an ultrasound and didn't find any. They said I need to follow a good diet, but my bilirubin levels went from 1.8 to 2.2 and haven't improved. What could be causing this, and what kind of treatment should I consider? Could it be something other than diet? I have my lab reports if that helps.

Question

I vomited earlier and now my throat hurts every time I sip water. What can I do to make this go away?
