Can we drink tea if our SGPT and SGOT levels are slightly high, like 60 out of 45 and 58 out of 35? Would that be okay or should we avoid it?

Your SGPT and SGOT levels are slightly elevated, indicating some liver stress or inflammation. Regarding tea consumption:

  1. Moderate tea intake is generally safe for most people, including those with mildly elevated liver enzymes.
  2. Avoid adding excessive sugar or high-fat dairy, as these can affect overall liver health.
  3. If you consume caffeinated tea, limit intake to moderate amounts, as excessive caffeine might not be ideal.
  4. Herbal teas without caffeine can be a good alternative.

It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the cause of elevated liver enzymes and get personalized advice. They may recommend lifestyle changes, further tests, or treatments depending on your overall health.

In summary, you don't need to completely avoid tea, but moderation and healthy choices are key while monitoring your liver health.

I've been told I have h. Pylori after an endoscopy and I'm a bit worried because I've got mild gastritis, but no ulcers thankfully. What's causing this h. Pylori, and what medications or treatments should I be looking at to deal with it?

I'm a bit worried and curious if there's any connection between not masturbating for a while and having stomach issues like acid reflux. I've been experiencing acid reflux and thought maybe it's linked to this. Is there any harm in masturbation related to this, or is it okay if I start again since it's been tough to resist?

There is no direct link between masturbation and acid reflux. Masturbation is a normal activity and, in general, doesnt cause digestive issues like acid reflux. If you're experiencing acid reflux, it may be related to diet, stress, or other factors. If you feel the urge, its fine to engage in the activity in moderation, but focusing on managing your reflux through lifestyle changes and medical advice may help more with your symptoms.

I'm feeling pretty worried because for the past 10 days, no matter how little I eat, I always feel like my stomach is super full, and I'm dealing with shortness of breath and a lot of burping. It gets even worse when I'm trying to sleep. I saw a gastroenterologist and started taking some meds like pantodac DSR, RCIFAX 550, and GAVISCON syrup for the last 3 days, and I'm feeling a little better. But, recently, I've been noticing my chest feels tight and heavy, and sometimes breathing gets tough. I dont have many other symptoms, just a really rare dry cough, maybe 3-4 times a day. Should I be worried about the coronavirus, or is this something more normal? Looking for some guidance here.
