Bilirubin is mildly raised. If no symptoms like jaundice, monitor hydration and avoid fatty foods. Repeat test if symptoms persist.

Question

My 16 year old son has been suffering from high fever (104F) and headache for the past 6 days. Yesterday we consulted a doctor. His CBC and urine reports are normal. Malaria and typhoid tests are negative. Platelet count is 1.75 lakhs, SGOT is 65, and SGPT is 70. The doctor prescribed Dolo 650 (three times a day) and Mahacef Plus (twice a day). The fever temporarily decreases after Dolo but rises back to 104F after 4 hours. What could be the reason for the persistent high fever and the increased SGOT and SGPT? What should be done next?

Question

My blood test report shows SGPT 75 and total bilirubin 0.87. I am taking the following medicines: Ursokem 300, one tablet twice daily; Silybon syrup, two teaspoons twice daily; Sorbiline syrup, two teaspoons three times daily. Please suggest what I should do?

Question

I had my gall bladder removed 6 weeks ago laparoscopically. I am taking a low fat diet and have had no problems till now. My report shows fatty changes in my liver and it is enlarged to 16.4 cm. My surgeon did not mention anything about it. I want to know the extent of this problem and whether it is worrisome. I want to know how to take care of my liver to reverse fatty changes, including foods to eat or avoid. Should I take any liver tonic? If yes, please recommend some. I am not taking any medicine currently. Lastly, can I take alcohol now in moderate quantity and occasionally. I am 23 years old, male, 5.10, 87 kg, with no diabetes or high blood pressure.
