I'm worried because my SGPT levels aren't going down, although my SGOT levels are normal. I'm thinking about starting Liv52 to see if it helps lower my SGPT. How long should I keep taking it, and is it actually effective for this issue? Any advice would be really helpful.

SGPT (ALT) levels may not decrease quickly with Liv52 alone, as it primarily supports liver health but doesn't directly treat underlying causes. It's important to identify the cause of the elevated SGPT and follow your doctor's guidance. You can continue Liv52 for a few weeks, but a healthcare provider's advice is key.

I've got 5.3mm gallstones but no major pain, just occasional back discomfort do I really need surgery or are there meds that can dissolve them

Having 5.3mm gallstones and no major pain is common, and in most cases, these gallstones don't require treatment. These are often called "silent stones" because they don't interfere with the gallbladder's function or cause any noticeable symptoms. However, it's important to be aware of potential future issues and to consult with a doctor to discuss your specific situation.
