I'm just wondering if I should continue taking the SIBOFix tablets since Ive already finished a 3-day course? I noticed that there are some available for another 3 days. Also, I'm planning to go to my native place for 3 days soon. Could you let me know if an appointment can be scheduled on the morning of the 17th before I leave?

I recently got my blood test results back, and it shows my SGOT is at 43 and SGPT is 85, which seems higher than normal. Should I be concerned about this? I've had an ultrasound on my abdomen too, and it says I have a Grade 1 fatty liver. I do drink alcohol about once a week. How serious is this situation? What steps should I take next?

Concerning that your BP isn't in the normal range despite taking Tazloc AM! Consider discussing the following with your doctor: 1. *Dose adjustment*: Increasing or adjusting the dosage of Tazloc AM. 2. *Combination therapy*: Adding another medication to complement Tazloc AM. 3. *Lifestyle changes*: Enhancing diet, exercise, and stress management to support BP control. 4. *Monitoring*: Regular BP checks to adjust treatment as needed. Remember, it's essential to work closely with your doctor to find the right treatment plan for your high blood pressure.
