Question

I've had a few tests recently and I'm a bit concerned about my liver results. I got tested on March 16th and my SGOT was normal, but my SGPT was at 83.5, and my platelets were 79000. When I tested again on March 17th, the SGOT was still normal, but the SGPT went up to 87.8. I just had another test on March 19th. I've been trying to manage things by drinking 23 liters of water and taking some supplements like Liver 52, Gaumulive, and papaya leaf extract. Could you help me understand these results, and if there's something else I should be doing to lower the SGPT level?

I've got this really sharp, needle-like pain in my stomach, and it's been going on since yesterday. Could this be something serious or is it likely to be something that might just pass? Should I be doing something specific to help with the pain?

Question

I've been experiencing these sharp, needle-like pains in my chest that come and go within a few seconds. At first, they were on the right side, but now they're also happening on the left and sometimes even under my left arm. This all started after I began having that burping, indigestion feeling last week. I've noticed that physical exercise gives me a bit of relief, but it still feels like maybe there's a burp stuck in my chest or something. Should I be concerned about this?
