I'm a bit worried about my ALTsgpt levels; they came back at 46. All the other results in my liver function test are normal. Should I be concerned about this? Are these ALT levels considered high?

I'm 45 years old and dealing with piles issues right now. My doctor mentioned trying Hilo tablets. Can you explain how these tablets work for piles? I'm just trying to understand how they'll help with my condition.

Hilo tablets, containing Daflon (diosmin and hesperidin), work by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and strengthening blood vessels, which helps alleviate piles symptoms such as pain, itching, and bleeding by reducing swelling and promoting healing of the affected veins.

I was just diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease last week and I'm dealing with this burning pain on the left side of my back around the breastbone and I'm also having shortness of breath. The doctor said it's GERD and I'm on medication, which is helping, but I'm still facing this breathing issue. Every 10 minutes or so, I feel like I need to take a deep breath or else there's this pressure and tightness in my chest. My blood tests came back normal with an HB of 13. Why do I feel like taking a deep breath every 10 minutes? Could you suggest any breathing exercises or regular exercises that might help with this?

yes go ahead
