I've been having loose motions since early this morning and I've already had two bouts of watery stools. Can you suggest any medicine? I wonder if it's because I ate some tomato-based curry outside yesterday. I've just moved to Mumbai a couple of days ago.

View allI've been dealing with some bilirubin level issues and it's got me a bit worried. So, around 40 days ago, my bilirubin was at 2.27 and my doctor put me on Udiliv 300mg for 10 days. Thankfully, all the HAV, HCV, and HBs tests came back negative. After a week of the meds, my levels dropped to 1.4, which was great. I kept taking the meds till September 8th and followed a strict diet. But when I checked again on September 18th, the bilirubin jumped back up to 2.6, even though everything else like SGOT, SGPT, protein levels were fine. Then, on October 4th, it increased again to 2.83. I'm really puzzled about what's causing this. Could you shed some light on why my bilirubin keeps rising like this?
The cause of the fluctuating bilirubin levels despite taking Udiliv 300mg and following a strict diet could be due to various reasons. It is important to consider factors such as medication adherence, underlying liver conditions, diet, lifestyle habits, and other possible causes of elevated bilirubin levels. It is good that your SGOT, SGPT, and protein levels are normal, indicating that there may not be significant liver damage. However, the rising bilirubin levels suggest ongoing liver stress or dysfunction. One possible reason for the increase in bilirubin levels could be a recurrence of the underlying liver condition that was initially treated with Udiliv. It is also important to consider other liver function tests, imaging studies, and possibly a liver biopsy to further evaluate the cause of the elevated bilirubin levels. In this case, it would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and further management.

I've had a few tests recently and I'm a bit concerned about my liver results. I got tested on March 16th and my SGOT was normal, but my SGPT was at 83.5, and my platelets were 79000. When I tested again on March 17th, the SGOT was still normal, but the SGPT went up to 87.8. I just had another test on March 19th. I've been trying to manage things by drinking 23 liters of water and taking some supplements like Liver 52, Gaumulive, and papaya leaf extract. Could you help me understand these results, and if there's something else I should be doing to lower the SGPT level?
Based on your test results, Munish, your SGPT (ALT) levels are elevated (83.5 and 87.8), indicating liver inflammation or damage, while your SGOT (AST) levels are normal; your platelet count is also low (79,000); continuing to stay hydrated with 2-3 liters of water and taking Liver 52, Gaumulive, and Papaya leaf extract may be helpful; however, consult your doctor to discuss the test results, potential underlying causes, and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
