Question 1

Hi, I recently went through a full body blood test. Other tests were fine and values are within the normal range, but my direct bilirubin level is 0.4 (normal range 0.0 to 0.3) and my indirect bilirubin level is 0.9. I just want to check if there is any need to worry and if there is any advice regarding this? Warm regards.

Question 2

Hi, one of my LFT tests shows SGOT as 70 with a reference range of 15 to 37 and SGPT as 200 with a reference range of 16 to 63. Another lab test shows SGOT as 83 with a normal range of 0 to 40 and SGPT as 176 with a normal range of 0 to 36. Can someone please help me understand which values are worse? Is the second lab test worse than the first? Which values are higher?

Question 3

I am 4 months pregnant. In the first trimester I was taking 100 mg folic acid and everything was normal. Due to my transfer I had to change my doctor and she started 500 mg folic acid for me. As a result in only 15 days my LFT report has given me a shock. Here is my report. SGOT 193 U per L. SGPT 257 U per L. GGTP 65 U per L. ALP 338 U per L. Bilirubin direct 0.60 mg per dl. I have always lived a disease free life with no medical issues or medicines till date. Please help?

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.
