Question 1

I'm having a problem where I need to go to the bathroom 2 to 3 times every morning, and it's not a complete bowel movement. This has been happening since I was born. Whenever I have to leave the house early, I take an Eldoper tablet to prevent more bathroom trips. I'm worried if taking Eldoper could seriously affect my liver. How should I handle this situation?

Accepted Answer

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

Question 2

I'm a bit worried about my latest blood test results. My total bilirubin came back as 1.7. Is that considered high? Also, my SGPT and SGOT are both 20. Do these numbers mean I might have jaundice? I'm just trying to understand what's going on with my health.

Accepted Answer

Total bilirubin level of 1.7 is within the normal range (normal range: 0.3-1.9 mgdL). SGPT and SGOT levels of 20 are also within normal range. These values do not indicate jaundice. No treatment is required for these values.

Question 3

I've been having this uneasy feeling on the left side of my stomach for the past four months. It's mostly a lot of gas and acidity. I just got an ultrasound done, and it says I have a fatty liver. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?

I'm 24 years old and I've been having issues with burping and vertigo. I also seem to have trouble digesting things like coconut milk. Could these be related, and what might be causing these symptoms?
