My bilirubin is 1.3mg, AST 165, ALT 91, and I have a cyst like a lipoma on my chest wall. The fine needle aspiration cytology report came back normal can I still get the lipoma or cyst removed with surgery even though my liver isn't in great shape right now? I've been struggling with alcohol addiction for 4 years and have been taking udiliv 150, two tablets a day for the past 15 days. Is udiliv actually helping my liver? I'm really worried about my liver health because of my alcohol use

I'm having some issues with my stool recently. It's been a bit sticky and somewhat loose, and I've also noticed a burning sensation when I go. I'm having to go to the bathroom 3 to 4 times a day, and this is happening even though I've cut down on spicy foods. I'm wondering if this could be related to an amoebic infection since I've been experiencing some sensation in my urine for which I'm getting treatment. Do you have any advice or thoughts on what might be going on?

I have a 7mm gallstone can it be treated with udiliv 300 or is surgery necessary for this size? What would you recommend?

For a 7mm gallstone, surgery is often recommended as the first-line treatment due to the relatively low chance of it passing naturally and the potential for complications. Udiliv 300 (ursodeoxycholic acid) can be used to dissolve small, cholesterol-based gallstones, but its effectiveness is limited and may take months or years.
