During jaundice, you should drink at least 2.5 to 3.5 litres of water daily, and it is great that you are using boiled water. This helps flush toxins and supports liver recovery. Your SGPT of 150 and bilirubin of 4 suggest liver inflammation, so continue a bland, low fat, high fluid diet. Avoid alcohol, fried food, and excess protein. Repeat your LFT in 7 to 10 days to monitor improvement.

Question

Sir, I have epigastric and burning pain in my epigastric region and also in back with bloating. There is always pain and burning in the abdomen. I have taken a lot of medicine but not permanent relief. I am sharing my report that says cholecystitis. Will my gall bladder be removed? I also have grade one fatty liver and some enzymes are a little high like amylase and lipase. Amylase is always under 120 but lipase a little high, first time 64. What happened with me? Is this pancreatitis or cholecystitis? Please help. What will happen in this matter?
