I've been waking up with a throat problem and a sour taste, plus there are these bumps in my throat. They gave me raciper 40 and zentel for it. A little over a year ago, I had jaundice. Is it okay for me to take zentel given my history?

I'm worried about my total bilirubin level, which is 1.56. Does that mean I have jaundice, or could it be something else?

A total bilirubin level of 1.56 mgdL is slightly elevated, but it is important to consider the normal range and context in interpreting this result. The typical normal range for total bilirubin in adults is around 0.1 to 1.2 mgdL, To get a clearer picture of your liver function, it is helpful to check other liver enzymes such as AST (SGOT), ALT (SGPT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and GGT. If these are elevated along with bilirubin, it may indicate liver dysfunction.

I'm 29 and recently got over Typhoid, but now I'm dealing with Jaundice. After a month of treatment, my Bilirubin levels have gone down from 7.3 to 3.2, but my SGPT is at 65.3 and SGOT is at 86, and they haven't really decreased much. Should I be worried about those levels not going down? What could this mean?

I'm experiencing a burning sensation in my lower abdomen, and my bowel movements have been irregular lately. Theres no sign of a UTI, and all my test reports came back normal. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, and what might be causing this discomfort?
