Got my blood test results and I'm a bit worried. It shows high bilirubin and low levels of vitamin D and B12. Can you help me understand what all this means? Should I be concerned about these results, and what steps should I consider taking next?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Elevated bilirubin levels may indicate liver dysfunction or hemolysis, while low Vitamin D and B12 levels can cause fatigue, weakness, and neurological issues; consider consulting your healthcare provider to discuss potential underlying causes, such as liver disease, anemia, or malabsorption, and to determine the best course of action for addressing these deficiencies and abnormal lab results.

View allI'm a bit worried because I just got my liver function tests back, and it says my SGPT level is 111.4 and SGOT level is 90.17. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Is there something serious going on?

I was wondering if you could help me with something. Last night, I felt something moving in my anus after going to the toilet. There's also this little pain I've been experiencing in my lower left stomach and groin area. Sometimes it even feels like there's some kind of obstruction when I'm trying to have a bowel movement or when I urinate. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
The sensation of something moving in your anus, accompanied by pain in the lower left stomach and groin area, and occasional obstruction during bowel movements or urination, may indicate a possible rectal prolapse, hemorrhoids, or anal fissure; schedule an appointment with a gastroenterologist,

I'm dealing with drooling for the past few months and I've heard it might be from worms in the stomach. I've had worm issues before, so I'm concerned this might be related. How can I put an end to this problem once and for all? Also, I've noticed a big gain in weight over the past couple of years. Could these be connected? What should I do?
Drooling may be related to various causes, and its important to get an accurate diagnosis from a healthcare provider. Worm infestations are treatable with medications, but they are unlikely to be the direct cause of drooling. For weight gain, a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, and medical consultation is necessary to manage the condition effectively.
