I've just gotten my test results, and I'm seeing an SGPT of 60 and a Globulin of 3.6. I'm a bit worried because I haven't been told to see a doctor. Everything else seems normal, but my LDL is at 151. Should I be concerned about these numbers, or is everything within a reasonable range?

View allMy brother just found out he has typhoid fever. Can you help me figure out a good diet plan for him? Like, what foods should he eat and what should he stay away from? Also, any tips on how we can keep everything hygienic during this time would be really helpful.
For typhoid fever, it is important to follow a specific diet to aid in recovery. Here is a suggested diet chart: - Foods to be taken: Easily digestible foods such as boiled vegetables, fruits, yogurt, soups, porridge, and well-cooked rice. - Foods to be avoided: Spicy foods, oily foods, raw vegetables, and undercooked meats should be avoided. - Hygiene tips: It is important to maintain good hygiene by washing hands regularly, drinking only clean and boiled water, and avoiding street food. In addition to the diet, it is important for your brother to take prescribed antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin as per the doctor's recommendation. Make sure he completes the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.

I'm curious about deworming for adults in the 40-50 age range. Should we be doing it even if everything seems fine, or is it unnecessary? Also, would taking albendazole be safe in such cases?

I've had a fever for five days now, and while my throat pain and cold have finally eased up, the phlegm remains. My fever just won't go down, though there's no body pain or stomach ache. The doctor gave me zocef, but I'm wondering if that's enough or if there's something more I should be doing. What do you think?
