Is it possible that my liver might be damaged? How can I bring it back to a normal range? I'm not someone who drinks alcohol, but I have put on some weight since getting married about a year and a half ago. I'm feeling a bit anxious about this. Can you help me out?

-It's understandable to be concerned, but liver enzyme levels can rise due to various factors, including weight gain. Since you're not an alcoholic, focus on adopting a healthy diet, exercising, and managing your weight. It's always a good idea to follow

I've been dealing with GERD and gas issues for 10 years now and my doctor suggested nissen fundoplication surgery would this surgery actually help me or are there other options I should consider first

Nissen fundoplication can be effective for GERD resistant to meds. Discuss surgical risks, especially gas-bloat syndrome. If meds work well, surgery isn’t urgent.

I'm really concerned about a friend who recently got their blood test results back. They tested positive for Hepatitis B, and I'm trying to understand what the results mean. The results showed a Hepatitis B viral load of 940 IUml with a log value of 2.97, and the viral load was 5471 copiesml. I'm not sure if these numbers are high or what they indicate. Could you help me interpret if the results are positive or negative for Hepatitis B? I'm really anxious to get some clarity on this.

Based on the results provided, your friend has tested positive for Hepatitis B. The quantitative viral load results show 940 IUml and 5471 copiesml, indicating an active Hepatitis B infection. It is important for your friend to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In cases like this, antiviral medications such as Entecavir or Tenofovir may be prescribed to help manage the infection. The dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by the healthcare provider based on individual factors.
