I'm looking at my recent blood test results and I'm a little worried. My SGOT AST levels are at 81, and the lab report says it should be between 15 and 37 UL. And then there's my SGPT ALT at 115, also higher than the usual 16 to 63 UL range. On top of that, my cholesterol's sitting at 210, which seems borderline high, and my triglycerides are 169. I'm really confused about what this all means for my health. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Do you think I need to make any lifestyle changes or consider treatment options?

My ultrasound showed a thickened gallbladder wall with a 15mm polyp and a few small calculi. The doctor prescribed antibiotic drips twice a day for infection, but my stomach feels bloated like there's air inside. Is this serious? Can it be treated with just meds or will I need surgery?

It's important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your concerns and the treatment plan, as they will have the most accurate information about your specific situation. While a thickened gallbladder wall, a 15mm polyp, and small calculi (gallstones) are concerning, they don't necessarily mean immediate surgery is needed. The 15mm polyp does increase the risk of malignancy, and polyps larger than 10mm are often recommended for removal.
