Question 1

My 16 year old son has been suffering from high fever (104F) and headache for the past 6 days. Yesterday we consulted a doctor. His CBC and urine reports are normal. Malaria and typhoid tests are negative. Platelet count is 1.75 lakhs, SGOT is 65, and SGPT is 70.
The doctor prescribed Dolo 650 (three times a day) and Mahacef Plus (twice a day). The fever temporarily decreases after Dolo but rises back to 104F after 4 hours.
What could be the reason for the persistent high fever and the increased SGOT and SGPT? What should be done next?

Question 2

Sir, my blood report shows SGOT 79, SGPT 123, ALP 163, potassium 5.43, chloride 98.50, and TLC 11.40. Please tell me about my report. Thanks.

Question 3

I have been experiencing stomach pain and recently underwent a CT Enterography and MR Elastography, which showed that my liver is enlarged to 22.3 cm and my spleen to 14 cm. I am also having body pain, fatigue, and right side abdominal pain, especially when sitting. Recently, I have noticed significant bleeding as well. My doctor has advised me to do liver function tests (LFT) and thyroid tests in the coming week.

In my blood report, SGOT and SGPT are 84 and 98 respectively. I have high pain in feet and hand joints and am suffering from fever. Is my liver damaged? What preventive measures should I take? All other test results in the report are normal.

These are mildly elevated and may be due to viral infection or inflammation. Its not serious liver damage but needs monitoring. Avoid alcohol, oily food, and get hepatitis panel if fever persists.
