I'm experiencing a fever that started yesterday, and while my overall body temperature is elevated, I've noticed that my hands and feet feel even hotter than the rest of me. Could this be an indication of something specific?

Recovering from jaundice requires patience and careful monitoring.

Possible Reasons for Mild Fever and Nausea

1. Residual liver inflammation: Although your bilirubin levels have normalized, your liver might still be recovering, causing mild inflammation and fever.
2. Medication side effects: Liv 52, Ulsys 300, and Nirocil syrup can cause nausea and mild fever as side effects.
3. Gastrointestinal issues: Nausea and mild fever can be symptoms of gastrointestinal issues, such as gastritis or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
4. Relapse or re-infection: Although unlikely, it's essential to consider the possibility of a relapse or re-infection, especially if you're not following proper hygiene and dietary guidelines.

Test Results

1. Bilirubin 0.7: Within normal range (0.1-1.2 mgdL).
2. SGOT 90 and SGPT 65: Slightly elevated liver enzymes, indicating some residual liver inflammation.

Next Steps

1. Consult your doctor: Discuss your symptoms and test results with your doctor to determine the best course of action.
2. Monitor your symptoms: Keep track of your fever, nausea, and any other symptoms to share with your doctor.
3. Adhere to your treatment plan: Continue taking your prescribed medications and following your dietary guidelines.
4. Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your liver function properly.
