I'm really concerned about my cousin's dad. He's dealing with mild hepatomegaly and a grade 1 fatty liver, plus he's got total lung damage. The doctors have basically said there's not much hope and mentioned we might only have as little as 15 to 30 days. Is there anything we can do or try? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Grade 1 hepatomegaly isnt life threatening usually. U should elaborate on the lung condition or any other underlying issue that hes facing.

I've been on this liver medication routine for a bit now and I'm just a bit worried. My sgpt was 125 and my sgot 85 when I got tested. I've been told to take golbi 300mg twice daily and evion 400mg once a day for six months. Now that I've hit the two-month mark, I'm wondering if it's really okay to keep taking evion for this long. Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Yes you can take it no problem.

So, I've noticed my face is getting darker or turning black, and I'm kind of worried. I've been diagnosed with PBC and have been on medication for liver function and taking vitamin tablets for about a month now. Could this change in my skin color be related to the meds or my liver issue? What might be causing this?

Darkening of your face could be related to changes in liver function due to primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), as it can affect skin pigmentation. Medications or vitamin imbalances might also play a role. I recommend discussing this with your doctor to adjust your treatment if needed.

I'm really worried about my husband who's 34. His SGOT and SGPT levels are high, and he's been experiencing swelling in his legs and face. Could this be a sign of a liver problem or something else? I'm not sure what all of this could mean but I'm definitely concerned. Could you help us understand what's going on?
