I am Nikhil, 26 years old. Three months ago, I had jaundice with SGPT 235 and SGOT 91, which returned to normal within 10 days. Now, I have jaundice again with SGPT 150 and SGOT 90, even though I have been following a proper diet. I have done tests for HBsAg, Anti HCV, and Anti HBc total, and all are normal. My ESR is 18. I am concerned about the repeated rise in liver enzymes. What could be the reason, and is this dangerous?

Recurrent elevation of SGPT and SGOT despite a diet can occur due to fatty liver, medication use, alcohol, or undetected viral infections. Your hepatitis tests are normal, which is reassuring, and your ESR is only mildly raised. Avoid alcohol, oily foods, and unnecessary medications. Maintain hydration and a balanced diet. It is advisable to get a Liver Function Test repeat and an Ultrasound Whole Abdomen to check liver structure and rule out fatty liver or other causes. Most cases are not dangerous if managed early under expert guidance

View allFifteen days ago I had lower stomach and abdominal pain. I was diagnosed with fatty liver and a urinary bacterial infection, which I got treated for. After 9 days, the medication was stopped. Yesterday, I felt pain again, though not as severe, and I took the prescribed medicine. My ESR value has been high since last year. I also feel fever between 99 degrees and 100 degrees F in the evening with body pain, especially in the lower body like legs, ankles, and lower back. I have attached my report. Please tell me what to do?

About 10 days ago, I tested positive for typhoid. However, I did not have a fever, my main symptoms were weakness, vomiting, and gastric issues. My Typhi Dot IgM was positive, and the titre was slightly elevated. I took Doxcef O for 10 days and also received the typhoid vaccine. Despite this, I still feel like vomiting after eating, and I am experiencing leg pain and overall weakness. This is the first time I have had typhoid, and someone mentioned that I might have become a chronic carrier, which has made me anxious. Is this a serious issue, or can it be fully cured? How long does recovery usually take? I have attached my report for your review.

I have always lived a disease free life with no medical issues or medicines till date. Please help?
