I've been feeling strange for the past couple of months, and it's happened twice already. I get this itchy feeling in my throat, and there's a heaviness right in the middle of my chest and the tube that leads from my throat to my stomach. It gets really uncomfortable. Breathing feels really tight, although it's still okay, but then I also get this uneasy feeling in my stomach. After about a week, it settles down, but then I start having pain in my lower abdomen. I used pantocid before, which helped, but now I'm confused. Is this a gastric issue, something heart-related, or maybe a breathing problem? Can you offer any advice?

I'm really confused about my recent health check-up results. My SGPT is 155 and SGOT is 180, but I'm not a drinker, so I'm puzzled about what might be causing this. All my hepatitis virus tests came back negative. An ultrasound discovered a grade 2 fatty liver, and my fibroscan is showing 9.5. I don't have any symptoms, just found out through a regular check-up. Could you give me some advice or suggest a treatment plan for this?

Based on your test results showing elevated liver enzymes and the presence of grade 2 fatty liver, it is important to address the underlying cause and manage your condition. Since hepatitis virus tests are negative, the elevation in liver enzymes may be due to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). I recommend starting treatment with Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) at a dosage of 10-15 mgkgday. This medication can help improve liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. In addition, lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are crucial in managing NAFLD. It is also important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your liver function tests and adjust treatment as needed.

What's going on with my liver function test results? I just got them back and my bilirubin levels are elevatedtotal is at 1.71, direct is 0.32, and indirect is 1.39. I've also been having this nagging pain on the right side of my lower abdomen, especially after eating a heavy meal. It's been like this for about a month. Should I be worried? Do I need any meds or more tests?
