My doctor told me that I have a weak liver, and that is why I lost 7 kg. But my LFT is normal. Is it possible to still have a weak liver even after a normal LFT test?

A normal LFT usually means your liver is functioning well. The term weak liver is not a formal diagnosis it may refer to mild digestion or nutrient absorption issues. Unexplained weight loss should be looked into further with tests like an ultrasound or vitamin checks. Visit the doctor for consultation.
Dr. Shaik Suggests...
Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test or Take a Vitamin D Test Test

View allFifteen days ago I had lower stomach and abdominal pain. I was diagnosed with fatty liver and a urinary bacterial infection, which I got treated for. After 9 days, the medication was stopped. Yesterday, I felt pain again, though not as severe, and I took the prescribed medicine. My ESR value has been high since last year. I also feel fever between 99 degrees and 100 degrees F in the evening with body pain, especially in the lower body like legs, ankles, and lower back. I have attached my report. Please tell me what to do?

My husband has had diabetes for one year and was diagnosed with fatty liver 6 months back. Recently, he did HbA1c, which shows 5.5, but random sugar was 177. Lipid profile shows triglycerides 317 and HDL 26. LFT shows conjugated bilirubin 0.6. Vitamin B12 shows 1046. I am very worried about these reports. Please explain if it is okay to have such values or if any further tests are needed to identify the cause of these elevated values. If not, how can these values be lowered?
