I recently got my liver function test results and I'm a bit worried because my SGPT level came back at 49. Is that considered high? Should I be looking into any kind of treatment for this? Also, my SGOT level is 34. Could you help me understand if these numbers are something to be concerned about?

Your SGPT (49) is slightly elevated, as normal levels are typically below 40 UL. SGOT (34) is within the normal range. It's important to discuss this result with your doctor to understand the underlying cause, but mild elevations may not always require treatment. A healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise can help maintain liver health.

I'm 28 and I've been struggling with acidity for quite a while now. It's really becoming a constant issue. Any ideas on how to get rid of it? Also, I've been noticing my body temperature stays around 98.5F and one time it went up to 98.7F. Is that something to worry about or is it normal? I measured it with a digital thermometer under my arm, just wondering if that's close to being a fever.

Elevated WBC (11.8k) and platelet count (11.5 lakh) without fever or injury can be caused by: Stress response Infection (viral or bacterial) Inflammation (e.g., arthritis) Medications (e.g., steroids) Bone marrow stimulation Other underlying medical conditions Consult your doctor to determine the underlying cause and appropriate course of action.
