I had my gall bladder removed 6 weeks ago laparoscopically. I am taking a low fat diet and have had no problems till now. My report shows fatty changes in my liver and it is enlarged to 16.4 cm. My surgeon did not mention anything about it. I want to know the extent of this problem and whether it is worrisome. I want to know how to take care of my liver to reverse fatty changes, including foods to eat or avoid. Should I take any liver tonic? If yes, please recommend some. I am not taking any medicine currently. Lastly, can I take alcohol now in moderate quantity and occasionally. I am 23 years old, male, 5.10, 87 kg, with no diabetes or high blood pressure.

Fatty liver is reversible with diet and exercise. Avoid alcohol entirely, especially post-surgery. Stick to low-fat, low sugar diet. No liver tonic needed without doctors advice.

Hi, I am 27 years old. I recently had a kidney function test (KFT), and my report shows SGPT 135, SGOT 57, and bilirubin 2.8. Please advise what steps I should take next.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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?
