Hello Doctor. My sister child is 1 month old and has not gained weight. Doctors prescribed blood and urine tests, mainly related to the liver. I have attached the results. Can you please let me know what the issue is?

In a 1 month old with no weight gain, liver tests help check for jaundice, infections, bile duct blockage, or metabolic issues. If bilirubin or liver enzymes are high, it may suggest neonatal hepatitis or bile flow issues needing monitoring or treatment. Ensure the baby is breastfeeding 8 to 10 times daily and passing urine regularly. Share the report with your pediatrician for next steps. If not done yet, do Liver Function Test (LFT) and Ultrasound Abdomen.

I have been noticing a strong smell in my urine, latrine, and certain foods, especially fish and chicken for the past 2 months. I do not think this is psychological. I also have chronic digestion issues. I had blood tests a few months ago and kidney function was normal, but SGOT and SGPT levels were elevated. My fasting blood sugar was around 102 mg/dL, and my cholesterol was high at 240 mg/dL. My weight is 63 kg, height 5 ft 7 in, and I am 24 years old.

Sir, my recent liver function tests show: SGPT: 300 SGOT: 600 GGT: 600 Bilirubin: 1.24 I am under treatment by a gastroenterologist, who says that heavy alcohol consumption on an empty stomach has caused the elevated liver enzymes. I want to quit alcohol and would like to know the risks associated with these high liver enzyme levels. What precautions should I take?
