My mother has 19mm gallstones and a dilated CBD. She's been eating very little but feels like eating more, and she only passes stool every 3-4 days. We've seen allopathic doctors who recommended surgery, but she's scared of it and wants to try homeopathy instead. The homeopath we consulted didn't help much. We're in Hyderabad what should we do? Can you review the ultrasound report and advise?
Given the presence of a 19mm gallstone and dilated CBD, along with reported symptoms like reduced appetite with increased desire for food and infrequent bowel movements, it's crucial to prioritize a thorough evaluation and consider all treatment options. While homeopathy may offer some benefits, it's essential to address the underlying cause of the dilated CBD, which is likely related to the gallstone.

I'm really worried because my SGPT level is 137. I need to get it down in the next 6 days. I've never smoked or drank alcohol, and I've never had jaundice before. What could be causing this, and what can I do to lower it quickly?
To lower your SGPT level within 6 days, you can start by taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) with a healthcare provider's guidance. Additionally, you can take Silymarin (Milk Thistle). It is also important to follow a low-fat diet, avoid processed foods, and drink plenty of water to help improve your liver function.
