Question

I've been having some discomfort on the left side just below my ribs for the past two weeks. It's really tender to the touch and gets quite painful. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of stomach bloating, especially after I eat. It even affects my breathing at times, making it short, and my heart seems to race when my stomach is bloated. Does this sound familiar, and what might be causing these symptoms?

I've recently had a routine checkup and my SGPT is 146 ul and SGOT is 56 ul. Plus, my cholesterol is a bit high at 210. It's the first time my SGPT and SGOT levels have been high, and I don't drink alcohol. Should I go back for more tests, or maybe stick to a suggested diet for a couple of months before seeing a doctor? What would you recommend?
