View allI'm really worried about my 80-year-old dad. He got diagnosed with a throat infection recently and he was already feeling weak, so they had to give him a blood transfusion. Now the doctor says he's got jaundice and might only have two to three months left. Can you help me understand what's going on and if there's anything we can do?
It is important to follow the doctor's advice closely and ensure he is comfortable and well taken care of during this time.

I recently recovered from jaundice, and my bilirubin levels were as high as 15. I'm feeling better now, but I'm curious about when it would be safe for me to get back to the gym. Also, is it okay to start taking my protein shakes and other dietary supplements again?
After recovering from jaundice with a bilirubin level of 15, it is important to give your body enough time to fully recover before resuming intense physical activity and taking dietary supplements. It is recommended to wait at least 4-6 weeks after your bilirubin levels have returned to normal before gradually reintroducing exercise. When you do start exercising again, start slowly and listen to your body. As for protein shakes and dietary supplements, it is best to consult with a nutritionist or dietitian to determine the right timing and dosage based on your individual needs. It is important to focus on a balanced diet with whole foods to support your recovery and overall health.
