I'm really concerned because my recent tests showed some worrying results. My ultrasound pointed to a fatty liver, and my blood work showed that my levels are a bit off: SGOT is 138, SGPT is 245, GGT is 138, and alkaline phosphatase is 117. Plus, my globulin level is at 3.5. What could be causing these issues?

I'm having a lot of trouble with gas choking near my heart when I have dinner at 9 pm. It's making it really hard for me to sleep.

Try to avoid heavy meals before bed and consider quitting smoking for better heart and digestive health. If the discomfort persists, its important to consult a doctor for further evaluation.
