My dad's SGPT levels came back at 125, and I'm really worried about what this means for his health. Is this something serious? Could it indicate liver damage, and if so, how can we go about treating it? I'm really anxious to know more about how we can get this under control.

To address this, it is important to identify and treat the underlying cause. I recommend consulting a doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can consider giving him Ursodeoxycholic acid. Additionally, encourage him to follow a healthy diet, avoid alcohol, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support liver health.

I'm 19 years old and recently noticed something strange - my stomach moves in a way that feels like a heartbeat. I'm not sure if it's something that has always been there, but I've only noticed it in the last couple of months. Could this be something normal or should I be worried about it?

it is not related to that

I'm having breathing problems and it's been going on for a week now. I even went for an ECG and it came back normal. I've dealt with gastritis before and was on meds for it. Could this gastritis be causing my shortness of breath?

Yes, gastritis and other gastrointestinal issues like acid reflux can sometimes cause or contribute to shortness of breath. This happens due to the proximity of the stomach to the diaphragm, which can become irritated and lead to feelings of chest discomfort or shortness of breath. Since your ECG is normal, its less likely that your symptoms are heart-related. However, its important to manage your gastritis effectively and monitor your symptoms. If your breathing problems persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation to rule out other potential causes and ensure you receive appropriate treatment.
