I recently got my blood test results back, and it shows my SGOT is at 43 and SGPT is 85, which seems higher than normal. Should I be concerned about this? I've had an ultrasound on my abdomen too, and it says I have a Grade 1 fatty liver. I do drink alcohol about once a week. How serious is this situation? What steps should I take next?

Concerning that your BP isn't in the normal range despite taking Tazloc AM!
Consider discussing the following with your doctor:
- Dose adjustment: Increasing or adjusting the dosage of Tazloc AM.
- Combination therapy: Adding another medication to complement Tazloc AM.
- Lifestyle changes: Enhancing diet, exercise, and stress management to support BP control.
- Monitoring: Regular BP checks to adjust treatment as needed.
Remember, it's essential to work closely with your doctor to find the right treatment plan for your high blood pressure.

I've been curious about my diet ever since I recovered from jaundice about 4 months ago. I'm wondering if it's okay for me to eat fish now. Also, I've been dealing with diabetes and I'm concerned about any foods I should avoid. Could you offer some guidance on what's safe for me to eat?
Congratulations on recovering from jaundice. Given your diabetes and recent jaundice, it's essential to be mindful of your diet. Here are some guidelines: *Fish Consumption* You can eat fish, but choose wisely: 1. *Opt for low-mercury fish*: Fish like salmon, cod, tilapia, and catfish are good options. 2. *Avoid high-mercury fish*: Fish like shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish contain high levels of mercury, which can harm your liver. 3. *Moderation is key*: Limit your fish consumption to 1-2 servings (about 6 ounces or 170g) per week. *Foods to Avoid or Limit* Given your diabetes and liver health, it's best to avoid or limit: 1. *High-sugar foods*: Limit sugary drinks, desserts, and refined carbohydrates. 2. *Saturated and trans fats*: Avoid foods high in saturated and trans fats, such as processed meats, full-fat dairy products, and fried foods. 3. *High-sodium foods*: Limit foods high in sodium, such as processed and canned goods. 4. *Foods high in cholesterol*: Avoid foods high in cholesterol, such as egg yolks, organ meats, and high-fat dairy products. *Foods to Emphasize* Focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods: 1. *Leafy greens*: Spinach, kale, and collard greens are rich in antioxidants and fiber. 2. *Berries*: Berries like blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are rich in antioxidants and fiber. 3. *Whole grains*: Choose whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and whole-wheat bread. 4. *Legumes*: Legumes like lentils, chickpeas, and black beans are rich in protein, fiber, and antioxidants. 5. *Nuts and seeds*: Almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, and flaxseeds are rich in healthy fats, protein, and fiber. *Additional Tips* 1. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. 2. *Limit alcohol*: Avoid or limit alcohol consumption to protect your liver. 3. *Monitor your blood sugar*: Regularly check your blood sugar levels to ensure they're within a healthy range.

I've been having this pain just above my belly button for about 23 days now. I recently noticed this thick, light yellow puss lightly oozing from my belly button. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could you advise me on what type of doctor I should see for this issue?
