Does the LFT test result vary before and after taking food? Also, why are there contrasting results for tests done within a gap of 4 to 5 hours?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, LFT can show slight fluctuation, but major variations within hours need retesting under fasting. Please repeat the LFT test fasting for consistency. Take this to rule out variability.

Recently, after treatment for COVID, I had another ultrasound where my liver echotexture appeared normal, but there was a mild increase in liver size. I have also lost 10 kg since then. My liver function tests are normal. Should I be concerned about these findings? I am attaching my report for your review.

I am sharing my report here. I am feeling hopeless anxious and breathless without any reason. I have no tension or stress in life. I had a problem in my liver two months back due to which my nerves were affected too. Now from the last three weeks these issues have suddenly appeared. The doctor told me that I have thick blood and the rest is my psychological state but only I know what is happening with me. Please share with me the exact reason for this? Only two attachments are allowed. My SGOT and SGPT are below 30 IU per L.
