Question 1

My doctor told me that I have a weak liver, and that is why I lost 7 kg. But my LFT is normal. Is it possible to still have a weak liver even after a normal LFT test?

Question 2

My husband had a blood test as he has digestion issues. His SGOT level is 73.10 U/L and SGPT level is 131.20 U/L. He does not consume alcohol. What is the remedy to bring these levels back to normal?

Question 3

Recent blood tests of my mother show some abnormal results, including RBC count of 5.22x1000000/microlitre, platelet count of 134x10000/microlitre (low), PDW of 14.7, fasting glucose of 114.5 mg/dL, ALT (SGPT) of 103.76 U/L (high), and AST (SGOT) of 50.73 U/L (high). She has been experiencing weakness in certain parts of her body, sweating on one side, and a feeling of inner restlessness. She is currently on medications for blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol, but has not received a clear diagnosis. Could you please advise on the possible cause of her symptoms and abnormal lab results, the course of treatment, and which specialist doctor she should consult next?

Blood test report attached. The SGPT level is high. Bilirubin is low. What should I do? My SGOT and SGPT levels are always high. Is the liver damaged? What medicines should I take?

Repeatedly high SGPT suggests liver stress. It could be due to fatty liver, alcohol, or medications. Bilirubin being low is not concerning. Get liver scan and consult a hepatologist.
