I've noticed my SGOT is at 93 and SGPT is at 89, and it's got me a bit worried. What can I do to bring these levels down to a healthier range? Any advice would be really appreciated!
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Elevated SGOT and SGPT levels indicate liver damage or inflammation. To help reduce these levels, you can take Ursodeoxycholic acid. Additionally, you can take Silymarin at a dosage recommended by your consulting doctor. These medications can help improve liver function and reduce inflammation. It is also important to avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy diet low in fat and sugar, and exercise regularly to support liver health.

View allI'm struggling with constant headaches and feel bloated all the time, plus there's this persistent gas issue. I'm not eating excessively, but I'm still dealing with this ongoing headache. My stomach feels out of sorts too. It's been like this for about two weeks now. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
It sounds like your symptoms could be linked to digestive issues or even stress. You might want to consider checking for food intolerances, and managing stress, and possibly reviewing any medications you're taking. If it persists, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions like gastritis or migraines.

I've been told I have a gallstone just one, around 4.9mm. Can homeopathy actually help dissolve it, or is surgery my only option? I'm a bit worried about what to do next.
Actigall (Ursodiol) is the primary drug used to dissolve gallstones. It is a naturally-occurring bile acid. This drug has almost no side effects but can rarely lead to increases in cholesterol or diarrhea. This is in marked contrast to other drugs which have been used in the past.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with burping problems for the last six months, and now I've started to experience yawning and shortness of breath. It's pretty concerning, and on top of that, I get heartburn too. What could be causing all these symptoms?
You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I recommend trying over-the-counter medication such as Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to help reduce stomach acid production and alleviate your symptoms. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) as needed for the burping. If your symptoms persist, it's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
