Question 1

I've been having this issue where every morning and evening, for about a week now, I feel super sick and start gagging uncontrollably, but I don't actually get sick. Plus, I've had these constant headaches that just won't go away, and there's no way I could be pregnant. What could be going on with me?

#ERROR!

Question 2

I've been dealing with chest pain and my doctor recommended an ultrasound of my whole abdomen. They found that my liver is enlarged, measuring 156 mm. Could you tell me what the normal size for a healthy human liver should be?

Accepted Answer

The normal size of a human liver is approximately 120-150 mm. In your case, with a measurement of 156 mm, it indicates hepatomegaly or an enlarged liver. This could be due to various reasons such as fatty liver, hepatitis, or other underlying medical conditions. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

I've been dealing with this left-side chest pain and I'm really worried. I went to the emergency room because of it, and while my ECG was normal, the doctor gave me some antiacid and anti-gas meds. It seemed to help a bit after a couple of days. A cardiologist later ran heart tests, which also came back normal, and he suggested the same meds. But today, the pain spiked again, and although it eased a bit after I ate and took more medicine, it's still lingering. I'm not feeling pain anywhere else, just in the left chest. I'm concerned about what could be causing this. Should I be consulting a different kind of doctor for better treatment?

Accepted Answer

Your SGOT (63) and SGPT (70) levels are slightly elevated, indicating mild liver stress.

Bilirubin (1.26) is within normal range.

To reduce liver enzyme levels:

Consult a gastroenterologist or hepatologist for personalized guidance.

Consider medications like:

Silymarin (Livercare) to support liver health.
Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to reduce liver inflammation.

My husband has an anus infection and the doctor prescribed orni d and zixflam tablets. He mentioned surgery might be needed if the meds don't work. What else can we do to help it heal and avoid surgery? Are these meds strong enough or should we consider other options?
