I have a fever that comes and goes, mostly in the evening, along with weakness. According to blood report, my SGPT level is 78. I would like to know what medicine I should take for typhoid and how to manage the elevated SGPT?

A raised SGPT indicates mild liver stress, which can happen in typhoid. Continue medicines as prescribed and rest well. If the fever continues beyond 7 days, follow up with your doctor. Continue the course of antibiotics, repeat LFT, after the prescribed course of treatment, to check if liver function has returned to normal or better

Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

Dear Sir/Madam, I went for a USG WA test last night, and the report shows my liver is 15.56 cm. Is it enlarged? My height is 174 cm and my weight is 76 kg.

She has been feeling weak recently. Today I went to the lab, and some of her test results are high. Her report shows SGOT (AST) 62 and SGPT (ALT) 53. She also says she has pain on the left side of her abdomen. What could be the reason for this problem?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My blood report shows normocytic, normochromic cells along with macrocytes and ovalocytes. My SGOT and SGPT levels are 55.9 and 61.9, respectively. I do not consume alcohol or soft drinks. Am I suffering from any disease?
