My mom just had some tests done and her SPGT ALT in liver function came back at 56. I'm really trying to understand what this means. Should we be taking any specific steps or actions moving forward?

An elevated SGPT (ALT) level of 56 indicates mild liver damage or inflammation, which can be caused by various factors such as fatty liver, hepatitis, medication side effects, or alcohol consumption; as a next step, consider consulting a gastroenterologis

View allI'm really worried about my dad who's been dealing with acidity issues for the past 10 years. He's been taking Aciloc for a while now, and I can't help but wonder if there are any natural remedies or home cures that might help instead of relying on medicine. Also, are there any side effects from taking Aciloc for so long?
While Aciloc is effective in managing acidity, there are also some home remedies that can help alleviate symptoms. For example, he can try consuming smaller and more frequent meals, avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods, and maintaining a healthy weight. Additionally, drinking a glass of cold milk or eating a banana can also provide relief from acidity. As for the side effects of Aciloc, common ones may include headache, dizziness, diarrhea, and stomach pain. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional if any side effects persist or worsen.

I've been having this uneasy feeling on the left side of my stomach for the past four months. It's mostly a lot of gas and acidity. I just got an ultrasound done, and it says I have a fatty liver. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?
Avoid oily and fatty foods..Do regular exercise. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Consult your physician and get yourself clinically examined and relevant investigations done like liver function test, lipid profile, blood sugar and get evaluated for hypertension and diabetes mellitus.. Drink plenty of fluids and remain hydrated. Take healthy balance diet.

I'm on medication for irritable bowel with velgutlibrax and rejunex for the last three months, but my doctor has recently cut it down to just librax three times daily. While sometimes I only need to go to the washroom once a day, there are other days when it's 2 to 3 times. My stool is still kinda semi-loose. Is this the right treatment approach for me?
reduce to twice daily and then to once daily
