I have been suffering from jaundice for the past 7 weeks. Initially, my bilirubin was 10?mg/dL. After 4 weeks, it decreased to 2.08?mg/dL, but now it has increased again to 2.3?mg/dL. My SGOT and SGPT levels have also risen. Could you please advise how to bring my bilirubin, SGOT, and SGPT back to normal?

The rise in bilirubin (to 2.3) and liver enzymes after initial improvement suggests your liver may still be inflamed. This can happen due to infection, food slip ups, or medicines. You must continue a strict bland diet (no oil, fried food, alcohol, or heavy meds) and get a repeat liver function test, hepatitis panel, and ultrasound done. Early action can prevent long term liver damage.
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a ACUTE HEPATITIS VIRUS EVALUATION I (HCV TOTAL ANTIBODIES, HEV IgM , HBsAg, HAV IgM , HBc IgM ) Test

View allSir, I am feeling very weak. After a liver function test, I received my report and many values are different from the normal range. Can you please explain what the exact problem is and what I should do now? Also, is this a normal problem or a serious problem?

What does an elevated ALP level indicate?
Answered by Apollo Doctors
I have been experiencing a fever of around 100F for the past 7 days, along with constant headache, body aches, and intermittent chills. I am attaching my CBC, LFT, platelet count, malaria, fasting glucose, and urine test reports for your reference. I am particularly concerned about my LFT values: ALT/SGPT is 256 and AST/SGOT is 225, which seem very high. Please review and advise on the possible cause and next steps.
