I'm dealing with a viral fever that's been going on for around 12 days now, and I just did an LFT test which showed my SGPT and SGOT levels are really high, like 230. I'm worried if this is serious or something that I can get under control. How do I manage these elevated levels and get some relief as they've been rising every day? Can you guide me on what steps to take?

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?

I've been dealing with some stomach and upper abdominal pain for a couple of days now, and there's been a lot of bloating and gas too. I'm starting to worry a bit. Any idea what might be going on?

If you are not having any vomitting or loose motion, it is likely just a case of gastritis or bloating. You can take Pantoprazole 40mg before food for a couple of days, while restricting yourself to a reduced spice diet. You can also consider taking Simethicone for relief from bloating. Avoid lying down immediately after meals and try to eat in smaller quantities with increased frequency, instead of large meals with longer gaps. Keeping yourself physically active for at least 150 minutes per week has great benefits with regards to gut health and peristalsis.
