I'm really worried about my wife's kidney function test results. Her SGPT is at 322, SGOT is 206, GGT is 235, and ALP is 379. Can you help me understand what these numbers mean and what we should do next?

The elevated liver enzymes (SGPT, SGOT, GGT, and ALP) indicate liver damage or inflammation, potentially due to hepatitis, fatty liver, or other conditions; schedule an immediate consultation with a hepatologist or gastroenterologist to discuss further testing (e.g., liver ultrasound, hepatitis screening), lifestyle modifications (e.g., diet, exercise), and possible treatment options to address the underlying cause.

I've been struggling with IBS for quite a while now, actually, it's been ongoing since I turned 34 and I'm from Bangladesh. I'm really hoping to find a permanent solution to this. Is there any treatment available that could finally put an end to my IBS issues?

A lymphocyte percentage of 46.6% is slightly elevated. The normal range is typically between 20-40%. Mild elevations can be caused by viral infections, stress, or fatigue. However, it's essential to consider your absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and other blood test results. Consult your doctor to discuss the results and determine if further testing is needed. In most cases, a mildly elevated lymphocyte percentage is not a cause for concern.
